Platinum Games--the developer behind action titles such as Bayonetta, Vanquish, and NieR: Automata--launched a Kickstarter campaign in early February for The Wonderful 101 Remastered. Crowdfunding quickly pushed past the $500,000 milestone, meaning the former Wii U-exclusive is coming to the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PC on May 19. With the campaign wrapping up imminently on March 6, however, another stretch goal has now been reached as the Kickstarter exceeds the $2 million mark.
A second mission will be added to The Wonderful 101 Remastered as a result of the crowdfunding campaign hitting the latest stretch goal. Titled Luka's Second Mission, it will see our hero "back and ready for more adventure." Luka's First Mission--a 2D side-scrolling adventure--was added after the Kickstarter hit $1.5 million.

Now Playing: 15 Minutes Of Wonderful 101: Remastered Switch Gameplay | PAX East 2020
At the time of writing, and with 27 hours of the crowdfunding stage left, 30,511 people have pledged $2,017,736 to the game. The remaster was already a done deal before a single cent was earned via crowdfunding, but Platinum says the campaign is about uniting a community of players and gauging interest. The money earned through Kickstarter will go towards rewards and stretch goals, such as the aforementioned extra missions.
GameSpot had a chance to chat with game director Hideki Kamiya and producer Atsushi Inaba about The Wonderful 101's Kickstarter campaign, although Platinum also has a few more projects up its sleeve. The Wonderful 101 is just the first of what the studio is calling the Platinum 4. The second was recently announced and is currently titled Project G.G., a hero-based action game heavily inspired by Ultraman. The other two projects are yet to be announced.
