Rumours about Ubisoft bringing back the beloved Scott Pilgrim vs. the World video game had been doing the rounds for quite a while. The first tease actually came from Ubisoft themselves, when they replied with a "thinking emoji" to a tweet by Scott Pilgrim vs. the World series creator Bryan Lee O'Malley in which he simply said "bring back the scott pilgrim game."
The above happened in May but Ubisoft even addressing a tweet by O'Malley, after 6 years since the beloved beat 'em up title was pulled from online stores, was actually quite a big deal, and fans took it as unofficial confirmation that the developer was indeed considering bringing the game back.
It was finally in September of this year that Ubisoft officially announced Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game Complete Edition, and revealed that the game would be including all of the additional content that had been previously released. re-released for current-gen platforms at some point this Holiday.
As it turns out, the game's release may be closer than we anticipated, as Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game Complete Edition has recently been rated by the PEGI(Pan European Game Information) rating system.
What's even more interesting is the fact that PEGI's official website actually has some tentative release dates for each version of the game. Most of the release dates pointed to the game launching on the 5th of November, but we already know that this didn't happen.
Maybe Ubisoft did plan for the game to release last week and, for whatever reason, they simply couldn't deliver. Whatever the case, this is still great news; for all we know, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game Complete Edition could even release as soon as this week. Fingers crossed.
