And early adopters can pick up the game for £19.99 (20% off) until December 17, when the price will go up to £24.99.

Featuring updated graphics, optimised control schemes and online leaderboards, the HD edition of 2006’s Banana Blitz released for PS4 and Xbox One in October.

Sega says the Steam version will also include the following PC-specific features:

  • Dynamic control options and full controller support:
    • Fully-remappable keys, gamepad and keyboard + mouse support in both the main game and mini-games
  • Play with unlocked framerates or fixed framerates – players can choose the best setting to fit their monitor (selectable from 60,120,144,240, full variable FPS)
  • A variety of graphics settings and options unique to PC:
    • Texture filters, post-processing effects, anti-aliasing, anisotropic, and shadow settings
  • A variety of resolutions and window settings to play with, HUD adjustments, monitor selection, and graphical presets
  • Time Attack and Decathlon World Ranking Leaderboards, Steam Trading Card support, Steam Achievement support
  • Steam Cloud Support
  • Controller vibration support
  • A Banana Mouse Cursor!

Sales of Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD could lead to further series remakes or even a new game, according to director Masao Shirosaki.

“Of course, I am aware that the most favoured titles are the first two games,” he told Crunchy Roll. “If there is enough support for Banana Blitz HD, this will open up doors for remaking the first two games or even a whole new title to the series. But for now, I’d be happy if everyone has fun playing Banana Blitz HD.”
