Peggle 2 has received a PEGI rating of 3 for Xbox 360, alongside a release date of February 12, 2014 - today. Peggle 2 hit Xbox One on December 9 in the US and Europe, and it's yet to be officially announced for other platforms, though it was previously rated for Xbox 360 and PS4 in South Korea.
Slow your roll on that PEGI release date, though. Some of PEGI's purported release dates represent the day those games launched in Europe (Grand Theft Auto 5), while others are incorrect (Call of Duty: Ghosts and Battlefiled 4 next-gen, Peggle 2 on Xbox One).
Still, another rating for Peggle 2 on Xbox 360 is a good sign for non-Xbox One puzzle fiends.
Peggle 2 is coming Dec. 9 to the Xbox One via Xbox Live. This comes from PopCap, in a preview of the game in VentureBeat yesterday. Peggle 2 will have 120 levels and run $11.99.Read more...
During Microsoft's Xbox One event at Gamescom, EA announced Peggle 2 would come to the next-gen platform. Speaking with GameInformer, Lead Producer Jared Neuss revealed some of the changes the game will see when it arrives later this year.
PopCap's pachinko-inspired game features new worlds, new masters - those amazing characters that gave players special abilities - and a different method of bringing its characters to life. They are now fully animated and react to the on-screen action, Neuss said. Showcasing a new character with the ability to hide a board's blue pegs, Neuss said the new Master powers will be very "over-the-top compared to the old Master powers."
Despite changes, Peggle 2 looks a lot like Peggle. But ... Saying "Peggle 2 looks like more Peggle" is like saying, "Why do I have all this dumb blood in my body?" Well, because you need it to live.
Peggle 2 will arrive on the Xbox One at the console's launch and make its way to other, unspecified platforms, at an undisclosed date.
Remember that awesome Peggle 2 announcement? Here's the same announcement, only more extreme. We're talking like, unicorns and explosions type of ridiculousness. And it's official!
PopCap co-founder John Vechey took the stage to announce Plants Vs. Zombies 2: Garden Warfare today. But not before announcing a sequel to Peggle and doing an uppercut. I really wish more games were announced like this.
