Bit.Trip Complete announced for Wii

By Fred Dutton Published 14 June, 2011

Lavish retail release for brutal indie saga.

The downloadable Bit.Trip games are being rounded up onto a single Wii disc later this Summer, developer Gaijin Games has announced.

Bit.Trip Complete will include all six episodes in Gaijin's genre-hopping revisionist jaunt through the history of game development, and a treasure trove of extras on the side.

Here's the full rundown of additional content promised, as detailed on the developer's blog:

  • 120 completely new Bit.Trip challenges spanning all six games
  • Exclusive audio gallery with fan remixes, original songs, and demo versions of existing Bit.Trip themes
  • Exclusive image gallery with production stills, concept art, and promo images
  • Exclusive video gallery with more than 25 movies telling the story of CommanderVideo
  • Six letters to Bit.Trip fans, written by Alex Neuse, the series' director
  • Exclusive Bit.Trip soundtrack sampler CD with music from all six games
  • All six games in the award-winning Bit.Trip series in one complete package
  • New difficulty modes in all games
  • Online leaderboards

As revealed earlier this year, all six games are also being repackaged for the 3DS as Bit.Trip Saga.

Publisher Aksys Games is yet to confirm a release date for either. While you're waiting, have a gander at the trailer for the stupidly hard fifth entry in the series, Bit.Trip Fate, which scored 6/10 on WiiWare back in November 2010.

    Awesome! Actually a GOTY (if it could be called that) edition that I'd buy in a heartbeat :)

    LOL! :D How do you lose a videogame console? Ot's not like it can fall down the back of a sofa.

    Interesting timing, I was just listening to the soundtracks of the games this morning on my way to work and was thinking about the collection coming to the 3ds. Now it's coming to the Wii as well; Not sure which one to get. I bought half of the games on WiiWare and enjoyed them a lot but I'm not so sure if I would buy them again - not because I already played them but because they are coming to the 3ds as well. A tough decision to make. I guess though the Wii version will be the better of the two; The music is obviously very important and I guess my hifi system does it more justice than the 3ds speakers.

    If it's sensibly priced (probably around £19.99 or £24.99), I'll be in.

    I might have bought this if I didn't own two of them, and if they weren't hilariously difficult,

    If the 'new difficulty modes' involve less punishing checkpoints this will be a great collection. Very tempting.

    Good, I've been wanting to play these for a while, but never got round to downloading them.
