Super Meat Boy 3D Brings Precision Platformer To A New Dimension This Month

Super Meat Boy 3D is set to bring the classic 2D series into the 3D realm, and it looks extremely promising. While we’ve gotten our hands on the title, we haven’t known when we’d finally get to play the full game outside of a nebulous “early 2026.” Thanks to today’s Xbox Partner Preview stream, we now know when the actual release date is, and it’s right around the corner: March 31.

Originally announced in 2025, Super Meat Boy 3D is the third mainline entry in the series, but the first to deliver a 3D adventure. The core concept is the same: Run, jump, and wall-slide from point A to point B in increasingly challenging obstacle courses. And, true to the series, when you finally succeed, you get to watch a replay featuring all your failures running along your success. With the new 3D plane, Team Meat has numerous new ways to design their levels, something I saw firsthand when I played through the first world a couple of weeks ago. 

Super Meat Boy 3D arrives on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch 2, and PC on March 31. It will be available on Xbox Game Pass.
