bump!

Ubisoft just announced this is getting re-released this year!

Adam Tyner

Here’s hoping for a physical release!

majorjoe23

Yes! I hope it has online coop now.

Adam Tyner

That was part of the Wallace DLC (IIRC), so it should be.

Decker

I own it. Was it ever Backwards Compatible with the XO?

Dan

Nope! I played it on my 360 recently, though.
It's even harder than I remember

gerrythedon

Never bought, will this time. People remember this time, "BUY IT" so it won't be de-listed again!

slop101

Still have it on my functional (for now) PS3, and I still play it on occasion - one of my favorite downloadable indie games - though I'm a sucker for 2D sprite-based beat 'em ups. Wish I could somehow transfer the indie games I have on my PS3 (almost 60 of them) to my PS4 and/or Switch.

Dan

So not quite "this year" but close enough. Officially coming January 14, 2021.
Xbox/Playstation/PC/Stadia/Switch

I've had a very not-great experience with LRG, but goddamn if I'm not ordering at least the basic set.

edit: I think I'll get the $55 PS4 version (assume it must work with PS5....??) because I want the map of Toronto

Adam Tyner

With the deals they have in place with Best Buy and Amazon, it's hard to imagine this not showing up elsewhere eventually. And that's assuming Ubi doesn't have plans of their own as well.

I'm definitely torn on which edition to get. I might wait until further into the open preorder to see what gets announced along the way. LRG usually waits until the last minute (or sometimes after the last minute!) to say if Best Buy's picking up a release. But I'm absolutely getting this somehow.

Dan

Oh, yeah, they've already said Best Buy will have a limited number of copies. They seem to do that with all of their Switch releases lately (except one, which went to Amazon, I think).

Man that complete edition looks cool. Is there video of the case in action though?

Dan

Nah. It's all rendered art so far. These types of companies don't even start making this stuff for until weeks/months after pre-orders end. Not a knock on them, but it's just how it goes. Don't expect it to ship for up to 6 months, either...

Mike86

I’ve never had a problem with Limited Run and have ordered from them numerous times in the past.

I think I may grab this for Switch. I feel like it’s a game I’ll enjoy, and my girlfriend likes Scott Pilgrim vs. the World so she may get a kick out of it too.

Decker

Those look cool, but honestly this is absolutely the sort of game that I would want a digital copy of instead of physical. I will probably buy a PS4/PS5 digital version at launch and a Switch version at first of what will presumably be many, many Ubisoft digital sales.

majorjoe23

I’ll probably buy this digitally on Switch and physically on PS4.

Maxflier

I'm doing the opposite, I love my Switch physical releases.

Mike86

Need to get in on a physical copy for Switch from Limited Run before the ordering window closes. Probably will just grab the standard edition.

Adam Tyner

Best Buy has the physical versions of the PS4 and Switch editions available now. It looks like they're only available for in-store pickup, but I'm getting my copy for the Switch this weekend, apparently!
