The remastered version premiered at the 2017 [[Game Developers Conference]], where Schafer presented a remaking of a magazine pack-in demo that included recorded lines that had not been included in the full game.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.engadget.com/2017/03/03/tim-schafer-gdc-interview/ |title=Why Tim Schafer keeps remaking his classic games |first=Sean |last=Buckley |date=March 3, 2017 |access-date=March 3, 2017 |work=[[Engadget]] |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170303203306/https://www.engadget.com/2017/03/03/tim-schafer-gdc-interview/ |archive-date=March 3, 2017}}</ref> Schafer said that fans had been critical of ''Full Throttle''{{'}}s relatively short length of about eight hours compared to other LucasArts games at the time which could take up to 40 hours. However, as he worked at the remaster, player expectations have changed, and he felt that ''Full Throttle'' would be much better suited at its length in 2017, comparing it to other fully polished, short games like ''[[Inside (video game)|Inside]]''.<ref name="dtoid remake"/> A port for the [[Xbox One]] was released on October 29, 2020.<ref>{{cite web | url =https://www.destructoid.com/grim-fandango-full-throttle-and-day-of-the-tentacle-finally-break-ps4-console-exclusivity-this-year/ | title = Grim Fandango, Full Throttle, and Day of the Tentacle finally break PS4 console exclusivity this year | first = Brett | last = Makedonski | date = May 13, 2020 | access-date = May 13, 2020 | work = [[Destructoid]] |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240227164035/https://www.destructoid.com/grim-fandango-full-throttle-and-day-of-the-tentacle-finally-break-ps4-console-exclusivity-this-year/ |archive-date=February 27, 2024 |url-status=live }}</ref>
