Developer Skunkape Games has announced a remaster of a unique, long lost Telltale Games adventure: Poker Night at the Inventory.
Better yet, it's set to release on PlayStation for the first time ever, coming to PS4 on 5th March, 2026.
Originally released in 2010 for PC and Mac, Poker Night at the Inventory is a nod to Telltale's first ever game, Telltale Texas Hold'em.
As you may have guessed, it's a poker game at its core, but it's delivered with the developer's flair for narrative and dialogue, with lots of banter shared between the game's unusual cast.

Playing alongside you are Max (of Sam & Max fame), Homestar Runner's Strong Bad, The Heavy from Team Fortress 2, and Tycho from the Penny Arcade webcomic.
As you play Texas Hold 'Em poker against this unusual group of characters, they'll trash talk and share stories with each other.
The remaster refreshes the visuals and lighting, makes some gameplay fixes, adds some quality of life updates, and introduces new unlockables, such as table and card designs.
A unique feature of the PC version is the inclusion of special items you can win that can then be used in Team Fortress 2; this remains in place in the remaster, but not on PS4.
It'll be available for $9.99 on PS Store. Are you planning on checking out the revamped Poker Night at the Inventory? Tell us in the comments section below.

I wish they would bring their monkey island game back. Gutted I missed it
I was all set to say “uhm NO, this was on PS3, what are you smoking?” but then I realized that only 2 made it to PS3 and I played this one on my computer back in the day.
Oops!
That's very random!
This is actually a really good, unique poker game though. Along with Poker Night 2
The AI isn't anything special so it's not super challenging, however where it excels is the conversation between the players throughout the game and each hand. It really immerses the player as if you were really sat at a poker table with a bunch of random characters
I enjoyed the second game on PS3. Would love to see a PlayStation theme one with maybe kratos, Nathan drake/sully, daxter, ratchet, and Joel
@dskatter I also was about to say "Uh, what are you talking about with these characters? I remember Ash and Brock Samson being involved!" Never did play this one, actually!
Strong Bad! I was a big fan of his shorts on homestar runner. My fav. was his take on classic video games. I will probably pick this up for nostalgia sake.
Awesome, I love PNATI2 so for less than a tenner it's a no brainer
@Elodin Strong Bad still lives! New Strong Bad emails are still being made and they just released an updated Kick The Cheat plush!
