Released today as a timed exclusive for Xbox Live Arcade, Grubbins on Ice is a completely new story that takes the four main characters of Costume Quest to an entirely new world:
Along with the new storyline, players can expect some new and interesting costumes with their own set of abilities. Some highlights include a pirate costume that allows the wearer to zip line from place to place and an eyeball costume that acts as its own set of binoculars. For those unfamiliar with the game, the conceit of Costume Quest revolves around small children with large imaginations and their costume’s ability to manifest as a true-to-life representation. Think of a character’s costume as their battle suit.
Grubbins on Ice is the perfect addition to a solid downloadable title that is poised to deliver just the right amount of new content to keep players coming back. Along with new costumes, expect eight new battle stamps and 18 new “ Creepy Treat” cards for players to collect. All in all, it’s the perfect gift for the gamer who has everything.
Is Grubbins on Ice enough incentive to jump back into Costume Quest? Anything you would like to see explored in a future DLC release?
Costume Quest: Grubbins on Ice is available now for Xbox Live, and comes to PSN December 21, 2010
