Developer Toylogic and publisher Microsoft studios have released a brand new update for the hit free-to-play Xbox LIVE Arcade title Happy Wars. Happy Wars allows up to 30 players to face off in online matches where teamwork and cooperation must be utilized to destroy the opposing team's base while protecting their own. The Holiday Update includes a brand new Challenge mode where players must team up to take down deadly bosses, new festive decorations and maps and smoother matchmaking that allows players to get into matches faster than ever before. You can download the new Holiday Update for Happy Wars today on Xbox LIVE and see why the game has over 1.2 million players since its release!
“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.”
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!
Happy Wars is now available free-to-play exclusively for Xbox LIVE Arcade. Happy Wars is rated T by the ESRB for Blood and Violence. For more information on the game, check out the official Happy Wars website.
