Une nouvelle version de ScummVM vient d'être publiée, il s'agit d'une version majeure qui a pour ambition d'apporter de nombreuses nouveautés que ce soit sur Nintendo Switch, PS Vita, PS3, PSP, Windows, et bien plus encore, notamment au travers de la compatibilité de pas moins de 50 jeux supplémentaires et qui ramène le support de la Nintendo Wii ou encore de la PS3 !
Le portage RetroArch a été correctement réécrit, et il fait maintenant partie du code source. Le portage Atari a également été refait à partir de zéro et la couche software passe désormais nativement au matériel, sans passer par SDL en tant que couche intermédiaire. Cela permet d'élargir la gamme de jeux compatibles.
Contrairement aux versions précédentes, il s'agit d'une version majeure avec le retour de toutes les plates-formes (Windows, Debian, Ubuntu, Vita, Android, Dreamcast, Switch, Wii, PS3...).
