'Super Meat Boy Forever' (ALL) Gets Nintendo Switch Date

by Rainier on Dec. 15, 2020 @ 4:37 p.m. PST

In Super Meat Boy Forever players will once again leap off walls, dodge buzz saws and perform incredible feats of 2D platforming.

The challenge of Super Meat Boy returns in Super Meat Boy Forever! Levels are brutal, death is inevitable, and players will get that sweet feeling of accomplishment upon beating a level. With an updated control scheme, new ranking system and daily challenges, players will run, jump, punch and kick their way through familiar settings and totally new worlds.

Dr. Fetus is being a jerk again (as he does), but this time he’s kidnapped Meat Boy and Bandage Girl’s adorable little baby girl, named Nugget! Meat Boy and Bandage Girl will be put through the grinder (THAT ISN’T A MEAT JOKE SHUT UP) as they jump, slide, punch and kick through 6 chapters containing randomly constructed levels that increase in difficulty each time you rank them up. Beat a level, it ranks, next time you play it you get a harder version of that level until you eventually master it! There are bosses, secrets, dying, awesome music, beautiful art, and dying! Also if that isn’t enough, there is a Dark World with extremely hard levels for those of you that like that sort of thing.

What’s better than playing through Super Meat Boy Forever once? The answer is simple: Playing through Super Meat Boy Forever several times and having new levels to play each time!

Levels are randomly generated and each time the game is completed the option to replay the game appears and generates a whole new experience by presenting different levels with their own unique secret locations. We’ve handcrafted literally thousands of levels for players to enjoy and conquer. You can replay Super Meat Boy Forever from start to finish several times before ever seeing a duplicate level. It is truly a remarkable feat of engineering and a monumental example of ignoring the limits of rational game design and production.

Super Meat Boy Forever is coming for us all on Nintendo Switch and PC (Epic Games Store) starting December 23, 2020, where it will cost $19.99, though there is a 10% pre-order discount bringing it to $17.99. It’s a holiday miracle!

To commemorate Super Meat Boy Forever coming to Nintendo Switch, PowerA has made a limited run of an officially licensed Enhanced Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch featuring Meat Boy, which you can pre-order today at PowerA.com or on December 16th at Amazon.com for $49.99 / £39.99 / €49.99.

Super Meat Boy was a massive success that changed my life forever and people had been clamoring for a sequel for ages,” said Team Meat co-founder and programmer Tommy Refenes. “But I didn’t just want to deliver more of the same and call it a day. Meat Boy deserved more than that. I wanted to rebuild Meat Boy from the ground up, in a way that would offer an entirely new experience that still hits all the same kinetic, addictive notes as its predecessor. I know Super Meat Boy Forever took forever to make but we’re confident that it was worth the wait.”

Key Features:

  • Jump, Slide, Punch and Kick through 6 chapters filled with randomly constructed levels. Beat a level, it ranks up, next time you play it you get a harder version of that level.
  • Tons of replayable levels! Bosses! Secrets! Punch and Kick stuff! and OTHER SURPRISES we aren’t talking about just yet!
  • Difficult platforming with great controls that are accessible to anyone but still require skill and practice to truly master the game.

Super Meat Boy Forever is coming to nintendo Switch and PC (Epic Games Store) on Dec. 23, 2020, followed by PS4, Xbox One in early 2021.
