TOKYO - December 18, 2012 - Toylogic today
announced the arrival of a major holiday update for
Happy Wars on Xbox LIVE® Arcade (XBLA) for the Xbox
360® video game and entertainment system. The new content
should bring tidings of joy to a lot of players around the globe,
as the studio has also revealed that the free-to-play multiplayer
battler has been downloaded more than 1.2 million times worldwide,
as shown in the game’s leaderboards!
“We put a lot of effort into making a game that would
appeal to every type of player, but it is still incredible to see
so many join the battle so quickly,” said Yoichi Take,
Happy Wars Game Director. “I hope all of our players
enjoy today’s holiday-themed update, and I look forward to
welcoming even more warriors, mages, and clerics to Happy Wars over
the holidays.”
The
Happy Wars Holiday Update includes:
-
A Special New Mode - The “Special
Challenge” game mode dares players to take on sets of co-op
battle situations and tackle dastardly boss characters. Complete
the challenges to win unique loot, but don’t dawdle! The new
mode is only available for a limited time, after all.
-
Festive Fields of War - The holidays have arrived
in
Happy Wars, and they’ve brought everything from
wintry map decorations to seasonal models. No need to worry about
being naughty or nice!
-
Network Improvement – Matchmaking is now far
easier for players who have good network connections, and the
length of time required to complete matchmaking has been shortened
drastically. Now everyone can focus on the game and have fun
without delays!
