Could ask the devs perhaps. There are variously cropped versions of the same illustration.

Holy shit I love that art, where is it from?

Ahh Let it Die. Yes that game is nuts. Maybe I can order this somewhere

Just get a high enough res version of the file and you can go to any number of places who can turn it into a print or wall scroll.

Failing finding that could alternatively upscale using a neural net but really would need a cleaner, less lossy source for ideal results (or some neural model to account for the lossiness).

Below is an example of scaling using a commonly used, forgiving model. It introduces its own particular texture however, although some don't mind it. Cropped two sections since the full size is too big to host. Note that my GPU isn't strong enough to process more than narrow slices at a time so some seams may be visible.

You can use an online upscaler like Waifu2x, although when I tried that for a print, it didn't quite come out that clean.  Could have just been the image itself, though, or turning it into a wall scroll as opposed to a print.  In the past I've generally just had wall scrolls made since you don't have to worry about frames and they're super easy to put up/take down/store.  No doubt that framed prints look better- I don't care since it's shit for my game room.

Nerd websites should carry posters of this boxart as a sign that they know what's up.



*hmph*

Those Roger Dean designed covers for Psygnosis' Amiga games were so badass
