Sticking to the tried-and-true formula of casual mini-games for the Nintendo Wii, Midway Games announced Game Party 2 on Monday, a sequel to its last collection of Wii games. The game revisits the original title with some overlapping diversions along with five all-new minigames.
“The success of the original Game Party was a result of consumers looking for fun, family-oriented party games for the Wii,” Midway’s senior VP of publishing, Miguel Iribarren. “Game Party 2 expands and enhances the original, leveraging Midway’s rich arcade heritage, and delivering more games that are a ton of fun and easy to pick-up and play with friends.”
Rehashed titles will include Bean Bags and Puck Bowling, while it will also introduce Quarterback Challenge, Horseshoes and Lawn Darts. All told, the release includes 11 different activities, many of which offer four-player mode, customizable characters, and even tournament play.
Midway offered no solid release date for the title, but promised a $30 MSRP when it arrives in the United States.
