EA has revealed the known (http://www.joystiq.com/2008/11/19/report-ea-shuts-down-blueprint-boom-blox-sequel-carries-on/) -- but never officially announced -- sequel to Boom Blox (http://nintendo.joystiq.com/2008/12/24/boom-blox-under-the-tree-use-these-cheats-to-unlock-everything/) for Wii. According to the press release, EA's Boom Blox Bash Party will be out this spring, featuring 400 new levels and a greater emphasis on multiplayer -- as evidenced by the "Party" in the title. (As well as the "Bash" -- which is a kind of party, we believe.)
"Boom Blox Bash Party is a wild social gaming experience," said Steven Spielberg, who is involved in the new game in whatever nebulous capacity in which he was involved in the first title. "We know families and friends really enjoyed playing the original Boom Blox together, so we designed more explosive multiplayer experiences with Boom Blox Bash Party."
Even more exciting, BBBP now has online integration for its level editor, allowing players to share their destructible Mario sprites (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_6x4l39jn0) with the community at large. EA will offer its own downloadable levels as well.http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.joystiq.com)EA invites Wii owners to a Boom Blox Bash Party this spring (http://www.joystiq.com/2009/01/29/ea-invites-wii-owners-to-a-boom-blox-bash-party-this-spring/) originally appeared on Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com) on Thu, 29 Jan 2009 04:00:00 EST.
