A few days after PopCap confirmed that Peggle 2 is in development for other consoles, the game’s publisher, Electronic Arts, announced that an Xbox 360 version of the game will be released on May 7. Peggle 2 for the Xbox 360 will come complete with Duel Mode, a versus mode where two players can pit their peg-busting skills against each other in a head-to-head battle, either locally or online.
Peggle 2 was originally released as an Xbox One exclusive in December and if you own the next-generation version of the game, you can try out Duel Mode today. The versus mode is now available as a free download for all Peggle 2 owners. If you’re unfamiliar with Peggle 2, allow me to let PopCap try to convince you to try it: “Just as in the classic original, Peggle 2 combines elements of pinball, pachinko and billiards and adds liberal doses of whimsy, fun, excitement and challenge – not to mention rainbows and a fifth of Beethoven.”
Also, there are magic unicorns and sentient pumpkins. What’s not to love?
