D3Publisher announced today that
Puzzle Qwest 2 will be coming to Xbox Live Arcade in Spring of 2010. We have looked at several previous versions of the Puzzle Quest game on the Xbox 360 (mostly by Cyril) with all receiving favorable grades
and one the Gaming Nexus Editor’s Choice Award. The next iteration looks to build upon the original’s winning formula with four character classes, the ability to build up each character’s level in story mode or hop right into instant action with multiplayer or Tournament mode. I imagine Cyril is licking his chops to get his hands on this one.
