Bully: Scholarship Edition was released for the Xbox 360 and Wii video game consoles on 3 March 2008. The game features exclusive content which was unavailable in the PlayStation 2 version, including eight new missions, additional characters, four new school classes (Biology, Music, Math and Geography) and new unlockable items and clothing. Some script changes have been made, including small changes and holiday missions from Chapter III absent from the PlayStation 2 version. The random NPCs also have more lines. In addition, single system 2-player competitive multiplayer minigames have also been added, along with Achievements for the Xbox 360 version and Wii Remote and Nunchuk motion and pointer controls for the Wii version. All ports of the Scholarship Edition use the game engine Gamebryo, rather than Renderware which was used for the PS2 version.

Rockstar Games first announced the game on July 19, 2007. On August 6, 2007, RockstarWatch.net reported on the release of the Australian Bully: Scholarship Edition box art which included artwork of the protagonist, Jimmy Hopkins, and the school principal, Dr. Crabblesnitch. On February 3, 2008, Rockstar announced the game's upcoming release on March 4, 2008 and posted the Scholarship Edition launch trailer at the Bully homepage.

Bully: Scholarship Edition was released in the PAL region under the original Bully title, and not Canis Canem Edit, as the original game was renamed. The Xbox 360 version to be released in Japan will also exclude "Scholarship Edition" from its title. Some retail outlets in Australia have since received recall notices for the game on both Xbox 360 and Wii. No reason for the recall has been given, but stores have been asked to remove stock from shelves and return it to the distributor.
