The expected sequel for Boom Blox has now been confirmed in a press release by EA and it's called Boom Blox: Bash Party.

This new offering is said to include improved multiplayer features, including team challenges. There will be over 400 levels to play, new types of blocks, new shapes, new tools and new actions like slingshot and paintball. The levels will take place in a variety of environments, such as underwater and outer space. To further increase the lifespan of the title, downloadable levels will be available from both EA and other users alike.

Famed director Steven Spielberg is directly involved once again, he commented:

"Boom Blox: Bash Party is a wild social gaming experience. We know families and friends really enjoyed playing the original game together, so we designed more explosive multiplayer experiences this time. We gonna need a bigger boat".
