Scott Pilgrim EX Review - A Decent Beat 'Em Up, But With So Much Going For It

It’s been fifteen years since Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game released, and a cool five since I published my review of the repackaged Complete Edition. As the first proper video game sequel, Tribute Games’ Scott Pilgrim EX is in a unique position, essentially using a throwback genre to court a completely different generation into the Bob-omb fold. Easy to pick up and play, and packed with cool new characters, Scott Pilgrim EX’s peppy pixelated visuals and impressive hero roster should be a home run, but it lacks depth, challenge, and any significant hooks to keep playing past the short route to credits.
