Microsoft today announced the release of Office for Mac 2011 version 14.2.4, which brings support for the Retina display on the new MacBook Pro released in June.
We’re happy to announce that Office for Mac 2011 (version 14.2.4) now supports Retina display for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook. Text everywhere is incredibly crisp and all key areas of the interface are now sharper than ever. We hope you enjoy this fantastic software experience!
Beyond Retina display support, the update also brings a number of other enhancements for Outlook, including calendar event reminders, Mountain Lion compatibility for signatures, and fixes for several other issues.

I gotta hand it to Microsoft. Between genuinely coming up with a new/different OS experience in Windows 8 (Not an endorsement outright), and quick updates like this, they're at least trying again.
If you've installed the 14.2.4 update and still don't see retina graphics, it's because OS X is caching Office's .plist files. You can either copy/paste the Word, Excel, PowerPoint .app files and delete the originals, "touch" the .app files in Terminal, or try logging out and then back in to get OS X to reload the .plist files again.
It's similar to the method used to force the high resolution mode on Chrome, Eclipse, etc, when the MBPr first came out, and some apps didn't have the NSHighResolutionCapable key in the .plist yet.
Installed and verified that I'm now running 14.2.4. I took a screenshot before and after the update. There's no change. Something must be broken in the update.
