N++ Ultimate Edition Out Now On Steam - Coming Soon To PS4

As previously announced late last year, the free update to N++ labeled the "Ultimate Edition" is out now on Steam, and will be coming soon to PlayStation 4.  The update is a huge content boost to the ninja platformer, doubling the available levels to the game and also provides a new "Hardcore" mode.

"Hardcore was designed for fans and especially highscore competitions -- in contrast to the regular Solo mode, in Hardcore the clock is always ticking and every death counts."

You can pick up N++ on Steam right now which is enjoying a 50% discount at the time of writing - the Ultimate Edition comes with the base game now. The update will hit PlayStation 4 "soon".

Metanet Software Would "Love To Bring [N++] To Switch"

Found this while browsing Reddit, but a fan asked Metanet Software on their FaceBook page the chances on a N++ Switch port. It sounds like they want to do it, but would just need help from Nintendo with porting, and cost.

"Just to clarify, we said we would LOVE to bring it to the Switch -- we still need to get Nintendo on board and find a team to help port it, and find the money to help pay for that :)

We think N++ would be so awesome on the Switch, so we're really hoping this works out! The more support we get from fans and players, saying they want N++ on the Switch, the better -- hopefully Nintendo will see understand how many people want this to happen and we'll be able to get the ball rolling."

Start tweeting at Nintendo, or emailing their support if you want to see N++ on Switch.
