Super Meat Boy Forever Epic Exclusive
Team Meat’s Super Meat Boy Forever re-emerged during the Kinda Funny Games Showcase and has a release date… sort of. It actually has a release month of April 2019. There’s a nifty trailer to check out, which showcases all kinds of gameplay, from bosses and platforming to level design. A lot of the more torturous elements should be familiar to veterans of the first game.
Super Meat Boy Forever will be an Epic Store exclusive for a year. Umm so a mobile runner version of my fav game that I didn't even ask for is now exclusive to a. Sep 07, 2019 Super Meat Boy Forever is one of many indie games on PC that will be temporarily exclusive to the Epic Games Store. During the recent PAX West 2019, Super Meat Boy Forever creator Tommy Refenes.
During The Game Awards, we learned that the auto-running platformer will be available on the newly launched Epic Games Store. So what gives? According to creator Tommy Refenes on the game’s official Discord (as per PC Gamer), “Super Meat Boy [Forever] is coming to Steam April 2020, a year after it launches.” Refenes feels it was “desperately needed to get Steam to give a s**t.”
“I understand people don’t like change but… the end result of this will mean better games for people,” he said. “It may be more launchers [for players], sure, but a small price to play for a developer community that doesn’t feel like they have one choice on PC. I would have put it on [the Epic Store] eventually anyway and I’m glad to make it exclusive.”

As such, it’s easy to see why the Epic Games Store is appealing to developers, since they pocket 88 percent of the revenue. While the store suffers from a currently limited selection and lack of region pricing, the backing of Epic Games and appealing terms for developers could lead to quick improvements.
Super Meat Boy Forever Epic Exclusive 2
Along with PC, Super Meat Boy Forever is also coming to Xbox One, PS4, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android.
Since the Epic Games Store’s launch at the end of 2018, multiple indie developers have opted to make their games Epic exclusives, even if only for a timed period. Some such titles include Ooblets, MechWarrior 5, indie building game Satisfactory, and Team Meat’s Super Meat Boy Forever. Now, SMBF’s creator has said that choosing to go with the Epic exclusivity deal was a “total no-brainer.”
As reported by Wccftech, Tommy Refenes, Super Meat Boy Forever creator, talked to Destructoid at this year’s PAX West about the game’s timed Epic Store exclusivity deal – and it sounds like the dev found the decision to take up the offer an easy one to make. In talking about the initial discussions, Refenes says “they told me they want Super Meat Boy Forever on the Epic Games Store but it would be a year exclusive. At first, I was kind of like ‘oh…okay.’
“Then they said they would guarantee our sales. Even then, I’m kind of like ‘I don’t even know what to ask for. So, run the numbers and tell me what you would offer.’ They did, and I was like ‘Yes!’ It was a total no-brainer. After I got the numbers, the level of fear of not launching on Steam for PC was immediately alleviated.”
Refenes continued, saying “that’s huge. That’s huge for anyone in any industry to be like ‘when you get done with your work, you’re definitely going to make this much.’ I don’t know who wouldn’t take that deal.” He added that “we announced at The Game Awards, and these are things that I’m not going to get anywhere else. To actually have Meat Boy on the screen at The Game Awards is nuts.”
Touching on the topic of Epic Store competitor, Steam, Refenes said “I feel like people are going to buy games on PC because that’s what we’ve done. Steam is a way to buy games, but it’s not the only place that sells them and it’s not the only place that’s successful.”
Super Meat Boy Forever is due to arrive later this year, at which time you’ll be able to grab it on the Epic Games Store.
