BIT.TRIP Rerunner Launches On Playstation 5

Last year the rhythm-based game BIT.TRIP returned with a fresh updated installment, BIT.TRIP Rerunner. The game is based on the original BIT.TRIP from the 2000s, an endless runner where your moves are timed to the beat of the soundtrack. There may be many who follow this formula now, but BIT.TRIP was one of the first.

BIT.TRIP Rerunner launched on Steam last September, with the promise of a console release in the coming months. It took a while, but the time is now — you can find the game on Playstation 5 as of today, and an XBox Series X version is coming soon.

“This is it: BIT.TRIP RERUNNER has hit the PlayStation 5 in a big way,” says Mike Roush, co-Founder at developer Choice Provisions. “We’re thrilled with how the original Steam release was received, so it was all-hands-on-deck at the studio to get this console port done. Better still, it was completed in-house to our exacting standards – and the port matches the PC version 100%, including the ability to create your own levels and music. If you’ve been waiting to marvel at the sights and sounds of BIT.TRIP RERUNNER on the best screen in the house, this is it. Time to annoy the neighbors!”

• Brave 150+ obstacle-filled levels based on the classic games – each one more challenging than the last.

Therer’s no specific date revealed yet for the XBox version of BIT.TRIP Rerunner, or any word on if / when the Switch will be getting this. We’ll keep you all posted.
