Rez HD (レズHD) is an updated version of Rez, released for the Xbox Live Arcade service in 2008. It was developed by Tetsuya Mizuguchi's company, Q Entertainment.

Prior to development, Sega held the rights to Rez (and are still credited in this release). Mizuguchi acquired the rights in full and produced this title independently.

Rez HD brings the game up to 720p with a 60FPS target. It would be followed by a 2016 PlayStation 4 release, Rez Infinite with ups the resolution to 4K and adds virtual reality headset support.
