One of the first indie studios to make a big name for itself on a Nintendo platform was Choice Provisions. The company’s Bit.Trip series was synonymous with WiiWare, and eventually its breakout hit Bit.Trip Runner got two sequels and its protagonist, Commander Video, even got a trophy in Smash Bros.
Now the series is back with Bit.Trip ReRunner and it’s set to be a celebration of all things Runner. Better yet, you’ll be able to forge your own challenge with Runner Maker.
Check out the announcement trailer:

Bit.Trip ReRunner has yet to receive a release date or confirmed platforms but considering the studio’s ties to Nintendo it’d be a surprise to see it skip the Switch.

Whether it’s an exciting new entry in a series long established or a weird experiment meant only for the dedicated, Tom is eager to report on it. Rest assured, if Nintendo ever announces Elite Beat Agents 2, he’ll be there.
