RememberToy Soldiers? It was a surprisingly cool little tower defense game on Xbox Live Arcade that I quite enjoyed, despite being sick of tower defense titles. If you liked it was much as we did, then you’re in for good news —Toy Soldiers: Cold Warhas been announced!
The sequel to last year’s downloadable title,Cold Warbrings co-op to the table in a struggle between US and USSR forces. New units, attacks, and drivable vehicles have been added, as well as improved multiplayer, a host of new minigames, and refined enemy behavior patterns.
The game will be shown off for the first time at PAX East, at Xbox Live booth 850!
