Rockstar Releases Anniversary 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, fans can now dive back into the world of Bullworth Academy with fresh updates tailored exclusively for mobile users.

Rockstar Hasn’t Forgotten about Bullworth Academy!

Bully: Anniversary Edition's latest update introduces support for new languages and focuses on enhancing the game's stability with crucial bug fixes. Notably, Rockstar has temporarily disabled Friends Challenges to ensure a smoother gameplay experience.

The update brings exciting new features like Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO) for Android users on compatible devices, an updated app icon, and the addition of haptic feedback across both Android and iOS platforms.

Several mission-specific issues have been resolved, including the notorious locker-picking problem in 'That Bitch' and progression issues in 'Weed Killer' when breaking the window prematurely. Additionally, the update fixes a glitch where police cars would fall through the floor during 'The Rumble' mission.

Combat mechanics have been improved, addressing situations where enemies would inexplicably refuse to attack Jimmy, thus enhancing the overall engagement of fights. The update also tackles crashes that could occur when starting a new game or loading a saved game from the pause menu.

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

For years, the gaming community has clamored for a sequel to Bully, but Rockstar has seemingly prioritized other projects. Reports suggest that Bully 2 was in development during the 2010s but was ultimately shelved in favor of Red Dead Redemption 2 and the expansive world of GTA Online.

With GTA 6 now on the horizon, the prospects for Bully 2 seem dim, especially considering the departure of many original developers from Rockstar. While the new update isn't the full remaster or sequel fans might have hoped for, it represents a significant upgrade for mobile players.

If you're new to the Bully universe, you're in for a treat. The game offers Rockstar's signature blend of humor and open-world chaos, set in the microcosm of Bullworth Academy. You step into the shoes of Jimmy Hopkins, a 15-year-old rebel navigating the trials and tribulations of school life.

Interested in trying it out? You can grab Bully: Anniversary Edition on the Google Play Store for €7.99, complete with full gamepad support.
