Zen Pinball is awesome, and Pinball FX 3 is totally my jam. Just yesterday, I was cycling through my PS4 library, looking for a quick fix of video game goodness. Spotting the never-ever-going-to-be-deleted Pinball FX 3, I thought “Oh, perfect”. I proceeded to spend an hour with the Star Wars Droids table, chasing a high score from a few years ago that I don’t even remember getting.
I love these games, and I love that Zen never abandons the platform, instead constantly improving things and adding incredible new tables at a steady clip (I still need that Jaws table. And that Fallout table.)
The latest announcement to come from Zen involves the addition of new tables from pinball manufacturer Williams. Williams Pinball Volume 1 will release on October 9, 2018 for $9.99. The pack will include the classic tables Medieval Madness, Junk Yard, and The Getaway: High Speed II. In addition, everyone will get a free copy of the Fish Tales table, just for the heck of it.
All of the Williams tables can be played in new remastered versions that include the usual Pinball FX whiz-bang effects and 3D characters, or in classic versions that faithfully replicate the original tables. Additionally, there are two physics models that can be toggled between, the new classic physics simulation or Zen’s modern-day pinball physics simulation.
The new Williams Pinball pack will be available on Pinball FX3 on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Windows 10 and Steam, as well as for Zen Pinball 2 on Mac.
