Feb 4, 2015 10:55 GMT  ·  By

Developer Roll7 and publisher Curve Digital announce the release of OlliOlli on Xbox One, Wii U and 3DS in the middle of March.

The skate-or-die simulator was received with enthusiasm by the public, with its combination of unforgiving controls, retro visuals, and exciting soundtrack making for a unique arcade experience.

Soon, Nintendo and Xbox gamers will be able to get their hands on OlliOlli and try out all the different game modes, including the Daily Grind and the tricky RAD Mode.

"We're really glad that Xbox and Nintendo players finally have a version of OlliOlli to call their own. We've always seen OlliOlli as a game for everyone and with Curve's versions, now it totally can be," Roll7's Simon Bennett stated in the announcement post.

A lot more coming our way

Roll7 is currently working on OlliOlli 2: Welcome to Olliwood, which will introduce a number of gameplay tweaks and features, among which support for split-screen local multiplayer.

The sequel also features prettier visuals, ditching the pixelated retro look for a sleeker aesthetic, and adding more variety to level design, including split-route sections.

In addition to this, Roll7 is also developing Not a Hero, a weird 2D cover-based shooter where you play the role of a murderous loner recruited by future mayor BunnyLord to cleanse the city streets of criminal activity, due out in early 2015, on PC, PS4 and PS Vita.

OlliOlli 2 will be released on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita devices from Sony sometime later this year, and the original, OlliOlli, is coming to the Xbox One home console from Microsoft and to the Wii U and 3DS systems from Nintendo sometime in mid-March.
