Here's a trailer that'll wake you up on a quiet Wednesday afternoon. The above video is the announcement trailer for Sinfeld Remastered, a PlayStation 5 title based on a game made in Dreams. There's quite a bit to unpack here.
So, last year, development team RareBird Games released Sinfeld Chronicles in Media Molecule's PS4 create-'em-up. It's a bizarre parody of Seinfeld in which you control Donathan, left home alone by his Uncle Jerry and dealing with some nightmarish scenarios in a trippy, ridiculous adventure. Well, the team has been working on turning this Dreams experience into a full game, and it's doing so with Sinfeld Remastered.
The PS5 game is being built in Unreal Engine 4, and it looks truly horrifying in the above trailer. We don't even know where to begin. After a successful Kickstarter campaign, this project will be coming to PS5, and we fear one of us will have to review it. There's no release date as yet, so we're safe for now.
What do you make of this? Have your say in the comments section below while we recover.

WOW THIS IS GORGEOUS
@rjejr It's a game about nothing
I hope it has some slap bass.
This is arguably one of the weirdest trailers I have ever seen.... and I think I love it LOL
Serenity now!
Clicked on the article hoping for Seinfeld references in the comments. The references were real and they are spectacular!
Donathan looks like he belongs on the r/13or30 subreddit.
Wow, that dialogue is just next level... haha
The stuff of nightmares.
I was in the pool!
I wonder how much of that will need to get cut for copyright purposes. I know some is parody, but I noticed Frogger, Kenny Rogers, and a even some actual audio clips from Seinfeld. I would think even "Festivus" would require permission from the creators - somehow I just don't see Larry David giving his blessing for this.
Oh yeah, I played this on Dreams. Really really weird.
Hard pass. You can tell it was made in Dreams. The animations are terrible.
@Jayslow @BusyOlf This is like the game of the meme of the show about nothing. The jokes just write themselves.
Please don't get cancelled midway.
Am I the only one who gets MGSV vibes?
@Ken_Kaniff It clearly says unreal engine in the trailer and article. They made a concept in Dreams and then made a game in Unreal Engine to sell.
The weirdest thing is that I don't see "Kojima Productions" written anywhere.
@captainsandman Still looks garbage in Unreal Engine.
Whatever I clicked on. This video is what nightmares come from.
WTF did I just watch? I want it....
