Fans of co-op beat-‘em-ups and fictional bass players who kind of suck as human beings might want to mark March 3 on their calendars. That’s when Scott Pilgrim EX is set to hit PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and Steam.
Developer and publisher Tribute Games announced the release date in a new trailer, which also revealed two more playable characters: Matthew Patel (a member of the League of Evil Exes) and Robot-01, a creation of the Katayanagi Twins. One more fighter will be unveiled in the coming weeks.
Tribute worked with Scott Pilgrim creator Bryan Lee O’Malley on an original storyline for the game. After Scott’s bandmates in Sex Bob-omb are kidnapped and demons descend on Toronto, Scott and Ramona Flowers set out to save the day with some unexpected allies. Anamanaguchi are making new music for the game, after providing the soundtrack for Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game way back when.
I’m a fan of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World and I dug Tribute’s last two games, Marvel Cosmic Invasion and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge. So it’s safe to say I’ll be trying out Scott Pilgrim EX in a few weeks.
