Rockstar, the masterminds behind the GTA series, have just treated fans to an Anniversary Edition update for Bully on mobile devices. Yes, you read that right—it's been six years since the last update, and now, mobile gamers can dive into the refreshed Bullworth Academy experience.
Rockstar Hasn’t Forgotten about Bullworth Academy!
Bully: Anniversary Edition has been updated with new language options and focuses on enhancing stability and fixing bugs. A key note for players is that Friends Challenges are temporarily disabled, but this move is part of the broader effort to improve the game.
For Android users with compatible devices, the update introduces Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO), enhancing visual quality. Additionally, the app icon has been updated, and haptic feedback is now available on both iOS and Android platforms.
Several missions have seen significant fixes. In 'That Bitch', the notorious issue with Mandy’s locker has been resolved. 'Weed Killer' now progresses smoothly even if you break the window prematurely. The glitch where police cars in 'The Rumble' would fall through the floor has been fixed. Furthermore, the update addresses the bizarre scenarios where enemies wouldn't attack Jimmy, restoring the intended combat dynamics. Crashes that could occur when starting a new game or loading a save from the pause menu have also been eliminated.
What Do Players Have to Say about Bully: Anniversary Edition?
The Bully community has been vocal about their desire for a sequel, Bully 2. Despite reports of it being in development during the 2010s, Rockstar opted to prioritize Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA Online instead. With GTA 6 now on the horizon, hopes for Bully 2 seem slim, especially as many original developers have moved on from Rockstar.
While this update isn't the full remaster or sequel fans might have hoped for, it's a significant upgrade for mobile players. If you're new to Bully, think of it as Rockstar's unique spin on a schoolyard sandbox game. You step into the shoes of Jimmy Hopkins, a 15-year-old rebel navigating the trials and tribulations of Bullworth Academy. It's infused with Rockstar's signature humor and open-world mischief.
You can grab Bully: Anniversary Edition on the Google Play Store for €7.99. It's fully compatible with gamepads, making your gaming experience even smoother.
