===High-definition remake=== {{main|Earthworm Jim HD}} In 2009, [[Gameloft]] released digitally an updated remake of the game on a number of mobile/handheld platforms. The remake was made entirely from scratch, without using the original game's code, and featured overhauled and smoothed graphics, a remixed soundtrack, a re-recorded voice of Jim, and touchscreen controls. Completely new, computer-themed levels were added. However, some previous features were lost. While the extended version of the "New Junk City" level from the "Special Edition" is included, "Big Bruty" ("Special Edition" new level) and "Who Turned Out the Lights?" (secret level from the original release) are not present.<ref name="wireless.ign.com">{{cite web|url=http://wireless.ign.com/articles/103/1037313p1.html|title=Earthworm Jim Review|work=IGN|access-date=4 October 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120102084417/http://wireless.ign.com/articles/103/1037313p1.html|archive-date=2 January 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=IGN: Earthworm Jim HD|url=http://uk.ps3.ign.com/objects/026/026621.html|website=IGN|access-date=7 April 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100423001902/http://uk.ps3.ign.com/objects/026/026621.html|archive-date=2010-04-23|url-status=dead}}</ref> It was later released as a download for the [[Nintendo DSi]] as [[DSiWare]], which is also downloadable on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] system.<ref>{{Cite journal |title=Nintendo :: Official Website :: What DSiWare games can't be transferred to the Nintendo 3DS? |url=https://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/3ds/en_na/gi_index.jsp?menu=applications%20and%20features&submenu=ctr-gi-apps-dsiware-wont-transfer |publisher=[[Nintendo]].com |access-date=2011-08-05 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130209001731/http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/3ds/en_na/gi_index.jsp?menu=applications%20and%20features&submenu=ctr-gi-apps-dsiware-wont-transfer |archive-date=2013-02-09 |url-status=live }}</ref> The only new addition for the DSiWare version was an extra minigame that involved the player using the system's camera on their own face, in order to mimic the same faces Jim would make on-screen.{{Citation needed|date=January 2012}} The Gameloft remake was also later released digitally on Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network as "Earthworm Jim HD".<ref name="xboxlive.ign.com">{{cite web|url=http://xboxlive.ign.com/articles/109/1095982p1.html|title=Earthworm Jim HD Review|work=IGN|access-date=4 October 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120817192647/http://xboxlive.ign.com/articles/109/1095982p1.html|archive-date=17 August 2012}}</ref><ref name="gamespot.com">{{cite web|url=http://www.gamespot.com/earthworm-jim-hd/reviews/earthworm-jim-hd-review-6267072/|title=Earthworm Jim HD Review|work=GameSpot|access-date=4 October 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130922020615/http://www.gamespot.com/earthworm-jim-hd/reviews/earthworm-jim-hd-review-6267072/|archive-date=2013-09-22|url-status=live}}</ref> It featured a [[comic book]]-like introduction, three new computer-themed bonus levels, and a 4-player multiplayer mode with special levels based on already existing ones.
