Earlier this year, a 10-year-old game based on a comic book that launched alongside a movie of the same name (also based on that comic book) suddenly found itself thrust back into the spotlight once more. That game was Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game, a side-scrolling beat-em-up developed by Ubisoft Montreal that originally launched on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 way back in 2010.

Both versions of the game were delisted from the Xbox and PlayStation stores at the end of 2014, but with the 10th anniversary of this game arriving this year, fans started putting the pressure on Ubisoft to re-release the game so a new generation of gamers could experience it. Ubisoft granted those wishes – somewhat, at least – announcing Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game – Complete Edition.

Am I the only one who thinks this game needs to be released on the PC? I mean, I know it was developed by Ubisoft, but didn't some of the devs from Tribute previously work for Ubisoft? Scott Pilgrim was an amazing game, I used to play it on my 360, really annoys me that it still hasn't been ported. Can Paul Robertson or the ex-Ubisoft employees not do anything to get this game on PC? Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game – Complete Edition will launch digitally for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, PC via the Epic Games Store, Ubisoft Store, and Uplay, and Stadia on January 14.

1. For Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game on the Xbox 360, a GameFAQs message board topic titled 'Wny can't I skip the credits?'
2. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game is a side-scrolling beat 'em up game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and Ubisoft Chengdu and published by Ubisoft, based on the Scott Pilgrim series of Oni Press graphic novels by Bryan Lee O'Malley and tying in with the release of the film of the same name.

That reveal came without the announcement of a release date, but today, we finally learned when Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game – Complete Edition will be arriving. The game will be releasing on January 14th, 2021 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, Stadia, and PC.

As the “Complete Edition” moniker suggests, the game will feature all of the originally-released DLC, which includes Wallace Wells and Knives Chau as playable characters. Aside from that, we probably shouldn’t expect any major changes from the game as it existed in 2010, but I seem to remember it being a perfectly good beat-em-up, so perhaps a Complete Edition re-release doesn’t actually need much in the way of new content.

Ubisoft hasn’t revealed how much the Complete Edition will cost, but we’re hoping it won’t be too much. We’ll let you know if pricing is revealed ahead of release, but otherwise, look for the Complete Edition to launch on January 14th.

Based on the popular comic book series and movie of the same name, the re-release is the complete edition of the game and includes the Knives Chau and Wallace Wells Add-On packs, which include online multiplayer, as well as the Battle Royale and Dodgeball game modes.

Lauded for its pixel art, old-school brawler gameplay, and excellent soundtrack, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game was one of the best beat 'em up games for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. It quickly became a cult classic, even more so when it was delisted from digital storefronts in 2014.

Ubisoft has not announced if it'll be available physically, but series creator Bryan Lee O'Malley hinted on Twitter that there might be a physical release after the initial launch, but that the decision is ultimately up to Ubisoft.

Previously announced as a Holiday 2020 title, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game just missed celebrating its 10th anniversary along with the Scott Pilgrim vs. The World movie.
