Geometry Wars 2 gets date, details News

Xbox 360 News by Robert Purchese

15 July, 2008

Bizarre Creations has said Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 will be out on 6th August.

The Live Arcade sequel was whipped out during the Microsoft E3 media briefing last night.

Geometry Wars 2 will have five new game modes, such as Waves, King, Deadline and Sequence. Also, Pacifism has been bumped up from an Achievement - for staying alive for 60 seconds without shooting - to an entire mode. Details on the others are expected soon.

Each of these can be played on your own or with three of your friends locally on the same telly. You can help each other or kill each other, and even play in a co-pilot mode where one person drives and the other person shoots.

There looks to be lots more abilities and special moves, plus tons of extra coloured-shape enemies to crowd the screen and make you panic.

All that in 1080p with the usual slew of Achievements and leaderboards.

Head over to the Bizarre Creations website for the sumptuous trailer, or into our Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 gallery for the E3 screenshots.

I'll still pass, didn't like the first one. I don't know why though, it felt like it should be better.

Geometry Wars Evolved was brilliant but I felt it was surpassed somewhat by Super Stardust HD on the PS3 which offered insanely addictive gameplay and some cracking visuals and music. Still you can't play SSHD on the 360 so I'm sure this sequel will be welcomed by its owners.

GW: Waves was ace, if a little overpriced. It did come with a free copy of PGR4 though...
