These versions were later scrapped, and development was moved to the Xbox. The game was re-released as part of the Xbox Classics series. Additional features While Buffy the Vampire Slayer was advertised as a single-player game, it has a hidden multiplayer mode, apparently for debugging purposes. The game starts with a variation of the expository narrative that was featured in the early Buffy episodes, as well as a variation on the opening titles sequence. However, both of these are made up of game footage." Source: Wikipedia, "Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer_(Xbox)," available under the CC-BY-SA License.
