It took awhile, but a new Samurai Jack game is finally on the way. There was a somewhat forgettable GBA title based on the TV series back in 2003, followed by a poorly-received GameCube title in 2004. Now that Samurai Jack is back in video game form, series creator Genndy Tartakovsky wants to do things right.
Tartakovsky referred to that GameCube release – titled Samurai Jack: The Shadow of Aku – during at panel at PAX East 2020. He said it “was done very economically” and “very quickly” before noting that “it wasn’t the love you always want for one of your babies.”
As for Battle Through Time, Tartakovsky sounds much more encouraged. He shared the following about taking another shot at a Samurai Jack-based game:

Over the past few years, Nintendo has been recognizing March 10 as Mario day. Retailers will be taking that information to heart with a new Switch sale planned for next week.
GameStop and Target (with other retailers likely to follow) are confirmed to be discounting Super Mario Maker 2, Super Mario Party, Yoshi’s Crafted World, and Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games. All of these games will be down to $40. That’s the main highlight, though there will be other smaller offices like Target throwing in a Joy-Con wheel with the purchase of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

Kitase told GameReactor in a recent interview:
