‘Scott Pilgrim vs The World’ game revived: See the limited edition here
With all the chaos we’ve endured in 2020, it’s time we’ve finally deserved some good news. Let’s escape the reality of these present months and take it back to a much more nostalgically sweet time – more specifically, to 2010’s Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. On Friday, Limited Run Games announced that Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game was coming back in style, and fans have been jumping for joy.
The Scott Pilgrim fandom has grown exponentially since the release of the now cult-classic, live-action film Scott Pilgrim vs. The World directed by Edgar Wright. The film is quirky, humorous, and fun just like the original graphic novel, and it stars some beloved actors & actresses such as Michael Cera, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Brie Larson, Ellen Wong, Aubrey Plaza, Anna Kendrick, and more.
We're excited to announce a Limited Run of @Ubisoft & @UniversalPics's Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game – Complete Edition (PS4/Switch).
