The original Lollipop Chainsaw, released in 2012, has gained a cult following over the years. However, acquiring a copy of the game can be quite challenging. It was never released on the digital storefronts for the PS3 or Xbox 360. Which means the only way to play it is to track down a physical copy.

Unfortunately, these physical copies have become sought after and, consequently, outrageously expensive. Collectors and fans who missed the initial release face hefty prices on the second-hand market. This makes playing the original release not even an option for many.

Will the RePop remake make Lollipop Chainsaw more accesible?

On the other hand, the RePop remake of Lollipop Chainsaw offers a more accessible and cost-effective alternative. This remake not only modernizes the game with updated graphics and improved gameplay mechanics but also ensures that it is readily available to a broader audience. It also provides an easy way to experience the game without the need to hunt down an expensive physical copy. The RePop remake makes it simpler for new and returning players to enjoy this quirky and beloved title.

For those interested in playing Lollipop Chainsaw, RePop is the most practical choice. It eliminates the hassle of searching for an expensive physical copy and offers enhancements that can improve the overall experience. Howerver, the original version holds nostalgic value and might appeal to purists or collectors. If you can find the original at a good price you should try it.

Either way, the remake provides a more accessible way to enjoy the game. This means fans and newcomers alike can dive into its unique blend of humor and action without breaking the bank.

Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP will come out on the PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, and WIndows PC on September 25, 2024.
