The Wonderful 101: Remastered Achieves Final Stretch Goal Post Campaign Closure

It has been well over a week since Japanese developer PlatinumGames finally met the end of its Kickstarter campaign to self-publish a remaster for 2013’s The Wonderful 101. Don’t worry, the team managed to accumulate enough in funding to make the project a reality – about forty times the amount of the requested pledge. The team managed to receive more than $2 million in backings from fans ecstatic to see the property to return to newer hardware.

PlatinumGames with the amount received has listed that the full game can expect Time Attack, Luka’s First Mission, Remix Soundtrack, and Luka’s Second Mission. However, that left the following stretch benchmark for $2.25 million for the remaster to receive ‘Orchestral Recordings’ for two major songs from the game.

In a post earlier today, Hideki Kamiya announced that the initially unachieved goal has later been reached thanks to donations from the Closing Stream for the Kickstarter campaign.

We know there have been questions about whether or not we hit the Orchestral Recordings stretch goal, and we’re overjoyed to announce that with the inclusion of the revenue from Twitch that we earned during our closing stream, we’ve officially hit that stretch goal and those orchestral recordings will be coming to the final game!

In the midst of the news, PlatinumGames also disclosed that the studio will be sending out a survey to all backers on the crowdfunding campaign and plans to distribute the rewards to those who supported the cause.

PlatinumGames’ The Wonderful 101: Remastered stands as the first of four titles for a new initiative to pursue self-publishing for the game developer. The second was revealed at a later date with the alias Project G.G. A Go-Go. You can read the full report an the announcement by heading here.
