BIT.TRIP RUNNER2 bounds toward February release

Gaijin Games sequel to the critically acclaimed BIT.TRIP RUNNER is nearing release.

BIT.TRIP Presents Runner2: Future Legend Of Rhythm Alien! continues the rhythm-music platforming action, players running through side-scrolling environments as they jump, slide, kick and soar their way past obstacles.

“There is no official release date yet, but it is AWFULLY close!,” Gaijin Games wrote on social media site Twitter. “We’re trying to hit as close to 2/26 as possible!”

BIT.TRIP Presents Runner2: Future Legend Of Rhythm Alien! will release on Wii U through the Nintendo eShop in February.
