EA has announced that beginning this spring it will begin rolling out Xbox LIVE Arcade versions of some of Hasbro’s board game favourites. Released under the Hasbro Family Game Night banner will be Boggle, Battleship, Yahtzee, Connect Four, Sorry! and Sorry! Sliders.

“We believe our Hasbro Family Game Night channel on Xbox LIVE Arcade will be one of the most dynamic and fun collections available on the platform,” said Chip Lange, General Manager of EA Hasbro. “We’ve been given the unique opportunity to create an exclusive EA Hasbro branded destination within the Xbox LIVE Arcade so players can easily find and play our lineup family-friendly digital board games. Just as families have game closets in their home, they will also be able to stock a digital game closet serving up hours of interactive play for kids and adults alike.”

Each game will feature both original and new ways to play, including a Party Mode that features multiple mini-game versions of each title. Each game will also offer customisation features that allow players to earn virtual trophies, furniture and themes to decorate their personal virtual game room.

Hasbro Family Game Night titles will also take advantage of Xbox LIVE community features such as online play, Achievements, the ability to launch new games without leaving the environment and sharing customised space with friends.
