Ubisoft announced today that Michel Ancel’s unforgettable action-adventure effort Beyond Good & Evil is receiving a high-def makeover on PSN and XBLA.

Released to critical acclaim circa 2003, the title borrows exploration elements from Zelda and features a charming art style. Due out next year, the HD remake will boast achievements and trophies, backed by “new secrets” and a remastered musical score.

There’s no word if a PC release  is on the cards. The original enjoyed a multi-platform release across PS2, GameCube, PC and Xbox. With Beyond Good & Evil 2 on the horizon, this will certainly serve as a much-welcomed refresher and ignite interest among those that missed out on its debut.
