Scott Pilgrim Complete Edition Video Game Gets a Release Date

Ubisoft has announced when players will be able to once again play Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game!

The wait to be able to play the impressive beat ’em game based on the Scott Pilgrim movie/comics is almost over. The last Ubi Foward presentation revealed the game (which had been pulled from digital stores back in 2014) would return this “Holiday Season” but it looks like it’ll be just a smidge later than that.

Regardless we won’t have to wait much longer. The game will arrive on January 14th on pretty much everything (also playable on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X thanks to backwards compatibility):

In this unique blend of style, humor and classic gameplay, players will help Scott Pilgrim take on enemies, including the League of Seven Evil Exes, to fight for love. They will rediscover the beloved 2D arcade-style beat ’em up game, inspired by the iconic graphic novel series and 2010 Universal Pictures film. Fans will fall in love all over again with the 8-bit animation by Paul Robertson, the critically acclaimed soundtrack from Anamanaguchi, and original cut-scenes from Bryan Lee O’Malley, creator of the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World graphic novel series.

Additionally, players will have the opportunity to team up with up to three friends locally or online to defeat foes, share health and coins, and revive each other. Friends can also compete in subspace mini-games, frantic dodgeball or challenge each other to epic battle royale matches or cooperate in the Boss Rush and Survival Horror modes.
