Disney Classic Games: Aladdin and The Lion King Available Now

Two of Disney’s most cherished games from the 90s make their highly anticipated return today in Disney Classic Games: Aladdin and The Lion King.  The enchanting collection brings back the beloved 16-bit magic of Disney’s Aladdin and The Lion King games, complete with new features, enhancements and a plethora of bonus content for both original fans and new players to explore on Nintendo Switch™, PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Xbox One, and PC.

The collection contains fan-favorite versions of each original title featuring upscaled graphics to support high definition displays and additional upgrades to enhance playability on current consoles. A brand-new “final cut” of Aladdin and an original Aladdin “tradeshow demo” that has not been publicly available since 1993 are also included.

Aladdin and The Lion King are iconic titles that redefined what a licensed game could be, so we took great care to deliver the kind of modern experience we, as fans, would want,” says Stephen Frost, senior producer at Digital Eclipse. “We wanted to highlight the rich history of both games and stay true to the originals, while also refreshing the experience for new players and all the fans of the 90s versions.”
