Fuzion Frenzy 2 official

July 28th, 2006, 15:32 Posted By: wraggster

Earlier this month, a GameStop product listing for Fusion Frenzy 2 for the Xbox 360 showed up on the Retail Radar. Today Microsoft confirmed that its original Xbox launch title Fuzion Frenzy would be getting a sequel after all--and a properly (or improperly, depending on one's perspective) spelled one at that.

Fuzion Frenzy 2 is set for release in the US this holiday season and will feature 40 minigames set on seven different planets, as well as online multiplayer matches and tournaments. Players will be able to use "tournament cards" they've earned for a variety of purposes, including selecting the next game to be played or choosing the next planet to go to.

Microsoft will publish the game, but it is entrusting development to Hudson. Well known for its experience with the party game genre, Hudson counts hits like Bomberman and Mario Party among its past titles.

It seems Fuzion Frenzy 2 won't be the only party game to hit the Xbox 360 this holiday season. According to the Web site of original Fuzion Frenzy developer Blitz Games, the studio is currently working on a secret project it describes as "an exciting new suite of 'pick-up and play' action games for Xbox and Xbox 360." That project is also due in the fourth quarter.
