Limited Run Games just announced the release of Plumbers Don't Wear Ties: Definitive Edition. Today's release is live now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. The PC release is still coming but that specific release date will be announced "at a later date."
Plumbers Don't Wear Ties is billed as a "romantic comedy" visual novel style game that is notorious for the horrific reviews it earned for its initial release. The original release came out in 1993 for the 3DO. Today's release has been enhanced by Limited Run Games and is said to be "the greatest remaster of the worst game ever made."
In lieu of a typical launch trailer, Limited run teamed up with Mega64 to promote the launch of the game.
