Announcement

The possibility of a possible revival of the Tomba franchise was first raised by an article on Exputer which noted trademark registrations in Europe and the US of the word mark "TOMBA!" by mobile game developer BBG Entertainment. This implied that a transfer of rights to the Tomba franchise from Whoopee Camp to BBG had occurred in 2021, but no announcement confirming or following up on this was ever made on the BBG website or to the press. Whoopee Camp's own US trademark had been considered abandoned since the year 2000 and had not shown signs of life since the studio's closure.

On July 12 2023, a remaster was announced by Limited Run Games through a post on Twitter, alongside a promotional trailer on Youtube. The game would be developed using the Carbon Engine, a type of emulator designed for re-releasing older games with modern features applied. The trailer consisted of a remastered version of the intro cutscene from the original, uncompressed video source.

On May 31 2024, the release date of August 1 2024 was announced and promoted through an interview with creator Tokuro Fujiwara on the PlayStation.Blog website, the official PlayStation news branch of Sony Interactive Entertainment. The interview goes into the history of the game, Fujiwara's thoughts on game design, and includes never seen before concept art. It also confirms the game's name as Tomba! Special Edition. The game's Steam page got activated at the same time.
