In 2015, a compilation of the first two games was released for Microsoft Windows through Steam, by Retroism, the video game software subsidiary of Tommo Inc. In addition to the games, a television pilot was created for a Bubsy cartoon show based on the video game series, however, it did not transition to become a full-fledged series due to unfavorable ratings from the pilot episode.
