Puzzle Quest: New Expansion Announced for XBOX Live Arcade

Infinite Interactive has announced plans for a downloadable expansion for Puzzle Quest: Challange of the Warlords for XBOX Live Arcade. They seem to be having trouble finding a name for the expansion, though, and have announced a contest to find a good name for the new product. You can enter the contest at the official Puzzle Quest website. The grand prize is a free download of the expansion, and *gasp* naming the game. Hmm that sounds like a pretty lame prize, for doing thier job for them, but whatever.. Key details about the expansion from the website are as follows:

  • Four New Hero Professions - Bard, Rogue, Ranger, Warlock

  • An entirely new part of Agaria to explore with all new quests

  • More than 50 New Spells including Bullseye, Corruption, Darkness, King of Thieves, Song of Pain and more

  • More than 40 New Magic Items including the Stormhammer, Stormshield, Darkblade and Dragonslayer

  • New Monsters

  • New Bosses

  • New original Music


Any guesses as to what the new "Song of Pain" spell is all about? My guess is that your opponent is forced to listen to Elton John's "Crocodile Rock".

No details on the pricing of the expansion have yet been released, so we'll have to wait and see how much they plan on charging for the title.
