"After more than six years, one of the Xbox 360's first XBLA games, Zuma, is finally getting a sequel. Well, to be more accurate, Zuma's Revenge came out in 2009, but PopCap is finally bringing the puzzler to Xbox Live Arcade this summer. The sequel will bring with it several new additions exclusive to XBLA, including a Boss Rush mode, weekly challenges and \"an all-new player progression system via Spirit Animal companions.\" The game is slated to arrive on XBLA this summer for 800 MS Points ($10), with a retail edition coming to North America at a later date.If you've somehow avoided Zuma's particular brand of PopCap addiction, the game tasks players with quickly destroying an ever advancing snake of colored balls by -- you guessed it -- matching up three or more balls of the same color. You've been warned.Show full PR text   PopCap to Launch Zuma's Revenge!&amp;trade; on Xbox 360&amp;reg;    Blockbuster Action Puzzler Coming This Summer; Delivers All-New Boss Rush and Weekly Challenge Game Modes Created Exclusively for Xbox LIVE&amp;reg; Arcade    SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--PopCap Games, the worldwide leader in casual video games, today announced plans to launch Zuma's Revenge!&amp;trade; for the Xbox 360&amp;reg; video game and entertainment system.
