Boom Blox Bash Party enables players to download more new levels via the Internet. Players will be able to grab, play and rate new levels from EA as well as levels created by members of the Boom Blox Bash Party community. Using the game’s easy-to-use Create Mode, players now have the power to share the levels they built with friends, or submit their masterpiece to be shared with the world! The expanded Create Mode lets players build and create like never before, giving them access to the same tool set the EA development team used to create each and every level in the game.
"In Boom Blox Bash Party we are taking the game elements to the extreme. In the original Boom Blox, we really focused on perfecting the game’s physics so now we can push the boundaries of physics, offering exciting new challenges and completely new ways to play," said senior producer Amir Rahimi.
