Rockstar, the renowned developers behind the GTA series, have thrilled fans with the release of an Anniversary Edition update for Bully on mobile platforms. After a six-year hiatus, this eagerly anticipated update is exclusively available for mobile users, leaving console and PC gamers waiting for their turn.
Rockstar Hasn’t Forgotten about Bullworth Academy!
Bully: Anniversary Edition's latest update introduces new languages and emphasizes significant stability improvements alongside essential bug fixes. Notably, Rockstar has temporarily disabled Friends Challenges to ensure a smoother gaming experience.
For Android users with compatible devices, the update activates Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO), enhancing visual depth. Additionally, the app icon has been refreshed, and haptic feedback has been implemented on both iOS and Android platforms.
Several missions have been refined, including 'That Bitch', where players previously couldn't pick Mandy's locker, and 'Weed Killer', which now progresses correctly even if you break the window prematurely. The update also resolves issues in 'The Rumble', where police cars used to fall through the floor. Furthermore, the patch corrects instances where enemies wouldn't engage with Jimmy, leading to unbalanced combat, and addresses crashes that occurred when starting a new game or loading saves from the pause menu.
What Do Players Have to Say about Bully: Anniversary Edition?
The gaming community has long clamored for Bully 2, yet Rockstar appears focused elsewhere. Rumors suggest a sequel was in development during the 2010s but was ultimately shelved to prioritize Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA Online. With GTA 6 on the horizon, hopes for Bully 2 seem slim, especially given the departure of many original developers from Rockstar. While this update isn't a full remaster or a sequel, it's a welcome enhancement for mobile players.
For newcomers, Bully offers a unique experience as Rockstar's rendition of a schoolyard sandbox game. You step into the shoes of Jimmy Hopkins, a rebellious 15-year-old navigating the trials and tribulations of Bullworth Academy, complete with Rockstar's signature humor and open-world antics.
Interested players can dive into Bully: Anniversary Edition on the Google Play Store for €7.99, which also supports full gamepad functionality.
