So… why did this need a remake, exactly? Thought we had the original and the sequel on modern systems.

Gearbox bought the franchise from its original devs about a year ago, and this is one of their attempts to capitalize on that purchase.

I don’t think that’s the case at all. Gearbox is developing a mobile game to take advantage of owning the property, along with whatever they plan to do with Risk of Rain 2 now. Returns is from the original studio and is more of a love letter / farewell to the franchise.
