Super Meat Boy Is Officially Getting Remade Without Edmund McMillen’s Involvement
Team Meat has announced Super Meat Boy Again+, a remake of its acclaimed platform game, renewing attention on the split between the studio and co-creator Edmund McMillen. McMillen says he knew nothing about the project, and his absence highlights how the franchise has continued without one of its original creators.
The remake will add new art, music, cutscenes and secrets, while revisiting the original game through what Team Meat calls a nostalgic lens. No release window has been announced. McMillen left Team Meat by 2017; since then, the studio, led by Tommy Refenes, has released several further games in the series, while McMillen has pursued independent projects including the successful Mewgenics.
