As a lifelong genre aficionado, I am downright giddy at the resurgence of the side-scrolling brawler, which wouldn't be happening without the likes of Castle Crashers and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game kicking things off many moons ago. But time is a flat circle, so new Castle Crashers DLC is coming and we're getting another Scott Pilgrim game—the cleverly titled Scott Pilgrim EX. Better yet, it's coming from Tribute Games, the crew who most recently gave us the satisfying TMNT: Shredder's Revenge.
Scott Pilgrim EX looks to be a successor to the original game, with an all-new story overseen by original comic author Bryan Lee O’Malley (also in charge of Netflix's recent Scott Pilgrim Takes Off series) and sprite by returning artist Paul Robertson, who has been busy with anarchic (and slightly NSFW) cartoon silliness like Jimmy & Baby here on Youtube. Tribute was founded by devs from the 2010 Scott Pilgrim game too, so the gang's all here, and firing on all cylinders if the reveal trailer below is any indication.
