N++ Doubles Number Of Levels In Free Ultimate Edition Update
N is one of the landmark indie platformers of the last decade, both because of its role as an originator, and because it holds up quite well on its own merits. N++, available on PlayStation 4 and PC, is the currently the most complete, packed version of the game, and it's about to get a lot more packed.
The game's free Ultimate Edition update (available now on PC and "coming soon" to PS4) brings the game's level count to over 4,300, adds dozens of new color schemes, bandanas, and other hides a few secrets, as well. It also introduces Hardcore mode, which developer Metanet Software promises will let players "see Solo [mode] in a whole new light."
If you're itching to get your hands on the update now, the game is currently on sale for half-off on Steam as a Daily Deal.

Our Take
I never got to finish all the levels in N++ in the first place, but hearing there's new content for the game gives me the itch to jump back in.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
