Happy Wars free-to-play

Toylogic's Happy Wars launched at the end of last week on XBLA, and it's free to download for all Xbox Live Gold subscribers. The game offers frantic 30-player strong matches, deep customisation options and, up until the end of today, all items in the store will be reduced by 20 per cent.

"With Happy Wars, we saw an opportunity to introduce the Play for Free model to millions of Xbox 360 owners that might not have experienced it before." said Yoichi Take, the game director for Happy Wars. "We designed the game to be fun and accessible for everyone right from the start, so I hope players really enjoy themselves."
