Looks like it’s back to the drawing board (albeit temporarily) for Skullgirls. The gorgeous, hand-drawn 2D fighter is being taken off Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Steam marketplaces in order to make room for a revamped version, titled Skullgirls Encore.

The original title will be erased from existence on December 31st, and re-painted in January 2014. Those of you who purchased the original title, fear not: you will be able to download the the title as a simple update to the current version. But act quickly – those of us who download the enhanced version will be privy to a free character and color pack. These freebies will only be available for a limited time, so I have an “inkling” that you should act fast.

OK, that’s all the drawing puns I can think of. The full details on the delisting/re-release can be at Lab Zero’s website.
