Seeing how they ruined the graphics, I don't think that we will see any incline from them. Also, PS4 and X-Box are listed before PC... That should tell us something.
Portuguese gaming culture is very console-centric nowadays. Most gamers above the age of 30 have turned to consoles, mobile or stopped gaming altogether.
Maybe there's a relation.

Even if they bought the the game with its own assets, I don't get sure they could have get the coreplay tools which can provide betters FX (lightmap, particle FX editor, game world editor).Hobgob keeps his own tools and brings them in his new house.

Here is a picture o f the Coreplay FX editor:

and now, the improved same tool of Grimlore:

Even hobgob told us during the drama when Coreplay has been shut down that they could keep their own tools and engine

So, yes, I guess the visual downgrade is due to the lack of these extra tools

(when they should clearly ass-rape their own politicians and hang them in the public square)

Rise from your grave. The incline never dies.
I'm nowhere near that optimistic. Even a good combat system can get buried underneath a load of shit encounters and a designer who believes that failure is too frustrating for players so it's better to dumb down everything. They may have the Chaos Chronicles engine and assets, but I have my doubts whether they have any of the spirit.

Wow, nothing says "We're really passionate about this project, it's not just some cynical cashgrab!" like stitching it together from the corpse of another dev's sadly unfinished game.

This is more depressing than assholes necroing the Chaos Chronicles thread all the time.:negative:

Are we certain they're even using the same engine? Maybe it's something they hacked together around the assets?

If someone was to film a documentary about this thing, it would end up more confusing than Chinese martial arts movies from the 70s.
