A few months ago, we had reported that Boom Boom Rocket would be Electronic Arts’ (EA) first game on Xbox Live Arcade (XBLA). The game was launched yesterday and will be available to XBLA gamers in the US, Canada and Europe.
About Boom Boom Rocket:
- Gamers find their groove in Boom Boom Rocket, by setting off rockets to the beat of the music while traveling through a 3D cityscape. The fireworks are choreographed to 10 original tracks created by Ian Livingstone. Gamers can play in single player mode or go head-to-head against a friend on the same console, making it a perfect social game. Easy mode allows players to get comfortable with the controls while Endurance mode challenges the perceptive of Boom Boom Rocket players with its intense speed and complexity of fireworks triggers. Loosen things up with the fun-for-all Freestyle Mode, or watch your favorite tunes light up the sky with the built-in Visualizer.
Spencer Brooks, EA’s Boom Boom Rocket Producer says, “The combined effort between the Pogo.com creative team and the talented team at Bizarre Creations evolved the idea into what the game plays like today. Seeing people’s response to the game itself has been such a great experience – it is what making games is all about. We’re so keyed up to give Xbox LIVE Arcade fans this new game and have had so much fun playing it ourselves – you can’t help but have fun playing this game.”
Boom Boom Rocket has been envisaged by EA’s Pogo.com casual games design team and developed by Bizarre Creations. The game will soon be made available in Japan, Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Australia, and New Zealand.
