They’re also recording an entirely new score composed by Jonathan Pero, and the company is trying to have that score performed by Prague’s FILMharmonic Orchestra – the same group that recorded the score for Civilization V.

We knew there was a remastered version planned for Kickstarter by Nightdive Studios, and yesterday, that campaign kicked off.
