Today, EA officially announced the redundantly-titled Boom Blox Bash Party for Wii. The game will have a whole bunch of fun new features, the most interesting of which being the level sharing mechanic. Users will be able to create their own levels like in the original Boom Blox (hopefully there will be more options to set rules similar to those in the included levels this time) and upload them to the Boom Blox Bash Party server. Levels will be manually filtered for inappropriate content, and selected levels will be made available to the general public. Levels created by people on your friends list will be accessible by default. Oh, and speaking of friends lists? Once again, Boom Blox Bash Party will not use its own unique friend code.
Check after the break for a full list of features. Boom Blox Bash Party is due out this spring.
- Over 400 new stages
- Multiple settings that will affect the game physics, like outer space and under water
- Twice as many multiplayer challenges as the original game
- New types of blox, including virus blox and conveyor blox (whatever those are)
- New shapes, including wedges and cylinders
- New tools, such as a slingshot and a paintball gun
- Less focus on guns and shooting levels
- New characters that behave more like blox
- Aside from user created levels, EA will occasionally upload new levels created by the game’s staff, as well as levels from the first Boom Blox
