On Twitter, Renka_schedule (a game scheduling Wiki) revealed a Japanese format and release date for the classic open world racer/smasher.As Gematsu points out, listings for PS4 and Xbox One versions dated for March were spotted in December. It's looking more and more likely that we'll be taken back to Paradise City this year.It's not clear is how extensive the remaster work being done is here - given the short time between announcement and release, it looks most likely that this is a port for modern consoles with an upped resolution.The game previously became backwards compatible on Xbox One in 2015.If you don't know what the fuss is about, refer yourself to our original Burnout Paradise review , where we awarded the game an 8.8 and called it "an intense, blazingly fast and perfectly controlling racer, one that you shouldn't miss."

Joe Skrebels is IGN's UK News Editor, and he kind of thinks a true remaster of Paradise would be one where they just remove DJ Atomika's voice. Follow him on Twitter
