<p>Commander Keen came to Switch back in February last year when Lone Wolf Interactive published the 1991 DOS game <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/commander_keen_in_keen_dreams">Commander Keen in Keen Dreams</a></strong> on your favourite handheld hybrid. Originally programmed by id Software legends John Carmack and John Romero, it’s safe to say the game isn’t up there with <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/doom">DOOM</a></strong> in the list of all-time greats, but it was still pleasant to see the Commander come to Nintendo’s console.</p>
<p>It seems that the Commander is coming back later this month–and in the same game, no less–in <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/commander_keen_in_keen_dreams_definitive_edition">Commander Keen in Keen Dreams: Definitive Edition</a></strong>, releasing on 27th August with Diplodocus Games on publishing duties this time round.</p>
<p>This new version of the game reworks the original and adds new features, levels and more, according to the game page on <a href="https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/commander-keen-in-keen-dreams-definitive-edition-switch/">Nintendo’s website</a>:</p>
<blockquote readability="10">
<p>Commander Keen is back. In the modernised Definitive Edition of the lost episode “Keen Dream”, Keen has to fend off a nasty nightmare about evil vegetables. The Definitive Edition features full widescreen support, twelve all-new levels – doubling the length over the 1990 original – and a full music score. The game structure has been reworked to make the game a more modern experience without sacrificing any of the original charm!</p>
