The remaster brings enhanced visuals and a number of gameplay changes. There are 12 kaiju to choose from, each with its own set of attacks, and eight locations that have day and night versions. The battles take place in recreated real-world cities, Monster Island and the alien Mothership. You can also use the environment in fights, picking up buildings and other landmarks to use as weapons.

The unlock system has also changed. You can now unlock monsters, locations and gallery items in whatever order you like. Each kaiju also has its own single-player campaign. For multiplayer, you can play local co-op with friends, or take part in the new online multiplayer.
