Super Meat Boy Again+ is official. Team Meat's new Super Meat Boy Again+ Steam page confirms the 2010 platforming classic is coming back to PC with new art, new music and new secrets, across more than 300 levels.

The game was revealed with an announcement trailer late on November 13 (ET). There is no release date yet, and the Steam page lists it as to be announced. If tough-but-fair indie games are your thing, Slay the Spire 2's new character The Fool was the other big indie story this week.

What is Super Meat Boy Again+?

Team Meat describes it as "everything you remember from Super Meat Boy presented through the wonderful lens of nostalgia with stuff added to it." So this is not a sequel. It is the original game rebuilt from the ground up, with new content on top.

The story is the same. Meat Boy, a boy with no skin, sets out to save his girlfriend Bandage Girl from Dr. Fetus, who is still a fetus in a jar with a top hat and monocle. The core feel stays too: short, hard and fast levels.

What is new in Super Meat Boy Again+?

According to the Steam page, everything is new but familiar. The art and sound have been redone, the cutscenes are newly animated, and there are new secrets and unlockables. Danny B, who scored the original, is back for the soundtrack.

In the statement quoted in Gematsu's Super Meat Boy Again+ report, Team Meat says it is keeping the plus a secret. Millions of players have finished the original and found every secret, so the studio wants to give veterans something new to pull their hair out over. In its words: "You'll go into it blind like you did the first time you played Super Meat Boy."

The game will support Steam achievements and leaderboards, which matters for speedrunners. With Steam Achievement Sets now live for everyone, achievement hunting in games like this should be easier to track, too.

Why does the original Super Meat Boy matter?

The original Super Meat Boy Steam page shows it arrived on PC in November 2010. It became the gold standard for difficult but fair platformers. Short levels, instant restarts and the replay of every failed attempt at once shaped the genre for years.

The series continued in 2020 with Super Meat Boy Forever, which switched to an auto-running style with generated levels. Again+ goes straight back to the first game's formula. VGTimes' announcement coverage notes the level count roughly matches the original.

Rebuilding classics has been a winning move this year. The Ocarina of Time remake selling 5.2 million in four days showed how much appetite there is for older games done again. Super Meat Boy Again+ is a much smaller project, but it follows the same idea of serving old fans and new players at once.

What does it mean for players?

If you beat the original, this is a chance to replay familiar levels with fresh eyes, and the secret plus content looks designed to test you again. If you never played it, you get one of the genre's classics with a modern coat of paint.

Price and release date are still unknown. Planning to play on handheld? Steam Deck FPS data on store pages should make it easy to check performance after launch. For now, the only thing to do is wishlist it on Steam.
