Rockstar Drops an Anniversary Edition Update for Bully after Six Years!

Rockstar, the masterminds behind the GTA series, have just released an Anniversary Edition update for Bully on mobile devices. After a six-year hiatus, this update is a welcome surprise for fans, though it's exclusive to mobile and not available on consoles or PCs.

Rockstar Hasn’t Forgotten about Bullworth Academy!

Bully: Anniversary Edition now boasts enhanced language support and a patch that zeroes in on stability improvements and bug fixes. While the Friends Challenges feature has been temporarily disabled, Rockstar has introduced Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO) for Android users with compatible devices. Additionally, the app icon has been refreshed, and haptic feedback has been added to enhance the gaming experience on both iOS and Android platforms.

Several mission-specific issues have been addressed, such as the locker problem in 'That Bitch,' the progression glitch in 'Weed Killer,' and the physics bug with police cars in 'The Rumble.' The update also corrects instances where enemies wouldn't engage Jimmy in combat, ensuring a more balanced gameplay experience. Furthermore, it resolves crashes that could occur when starting a new game or loading a save from the pause menu.

What Do Players Have to Say about Bully: Anniversary Edition?

The fanbase has been clamoring for Bully 2 for years, but Rockstar appears to have shifted focus. Although Bully 2 was reportedly in development during the 2010s, it was ultimately shelved to prioritize Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA Online. With GTA 6 on the horizon, the prospects for a sequel seem slim, especially considering many of the original Bully team have moved on from Rockstar.

This update, while not a full remaster or sequel, offers a significant upgrade for mobile players. If you're new to Bully, you're in for a treat. The game casts you as Jimmy Hopkins, a 15-year-old rebel navigating the trials and tribulations of Bullworth Academy. It's a classic Rockstar experience, brimming with humor and open-world antics.

So, if you're interested, head over to the Google Play Store where Bully: Anniversary Edition is available for €7.99 and supports full gamepad functionality.
