The classic Rockstar adventure game, Bully, has recently been re-rated for modern consoles including PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, and PC, according to the Taiwan Digital Game Rating Committee. While this news would typically lead to great excitement and speculation about potential future ports or remasters, it’s essential to temper the fervor surrounding this reveal.

Bully is considered one of the greatest games of its era, featuring rewarding exploration-based gameplay and a school timetable structure that sets the stage for various friendship and relationship dramas that unfold throughout a tightly woven story. Despite the game’s popularity, Rockstar has not indicated any plans to revisit the world of Bully or provide the original game with a fresh update.

Although Bully has been re-rated for multiple modern consoles, the new listings are more likely connected to Bully’s launch as a benefit for GTA+ Members. The GTA+ subscription service, created by Rockstar, offers players of GTA Online a range of exclusive benefits, including in-game currency, access to exclusive content, member-only bonuses, and more.

Bully was announced as the latest addition for GTA+ Members in an early August blog post from Rockstar, with the game set to officially launch for subscribers on 20 August. It will be available for download on the console platform corresponding to the member’s active GTA+ Membership, as well as on compatible iOS and Android devices.

It appears that Bully will be made more widely available on modern consoles in its original form. While some fans may have hoped for a remastered version of the game, the re-rating signals that a fresh coat of paint is not in the cards for now. However, Bully remains a fantastic game that can be enjoyed by players, whether they are experiencing it for the first time or revisiting it for nostalgia’s sake.

As fans eagerly await the arrival of Bully on modern consoles through the GTA+ subscription service, it’s clear that the game’s enduring appeal lies in its gameplay and storytelling. While a remaster may not be on the horizon, the prospect of new players discovering the charm of Bully for the first time is an exciting development. For now, fans will have to continue playing the waiting game in hopes of a potential remaster down the line.
