Bit.Trip Rerunner confirmed for Nintendo Switch 2

Choice Provisions will release a Nintendo Switch 2 version of Bit.Trip Rerunner, it’s been confirmed. A campaign to port the game over has been taking place on Kickstarter and the $50,000 goal has been met less than three days before crowdfunding ended.

Bit.Trip Rerunner is a new take on the classic rhythm platformer. Additionally, a level designer is included.

Bit.Trip has a long history on Nintendo platforms and the entire series is currently available on Switch. The franchise originally started out on WiiWare back in 2009.

Here’s an overview of the game:

Bit.Trip is back as Bit.Trip Rerunner + Runner Maker! The classic rhythm platformer just got revamped with new mechanics, trippy visuals, and a killer soundtrack – plus a level editor for aspiring game designers.

The Runner Maker empowers players to create and share custom levels. Indulge your imagination as you adjust obstacles and shape beat-driven gameplay – and then share your levels with the community. Inspire and be inspired as your fellow designers explore this limitless rhythm gaming adventure.

Why have one soundtrack when you can enjoy eight? Every song from every Bit.Trip title makes an appearance in Bit.Trip Rerunner + Runner Maker! Keep an ear to the ground for your favorite chiptune beats from Beat, Core, Void, Fate, Flux, Runner, Runner2, and Runner3!
