After almost a year of silence, EA has finally released information on Boom Blox, Steven Spielberg’s previously untitled video game project announced at last year’s E3.

Boom Blox is a family oriented casual game which will feature over 300 levels and 30 “wacky” characters.

“I am a gamer myself, and I really wanted to create a video game that I could play with my kids,” said Steven Spielberg. “BOOM BLOX features an enormous amount of fun challenges and cool scenarios for your kids to solve or for you to master together.”

Players will also be able to remix environments as well as build them completely from scratch using blocks, props, and characters from the game. Players will be able to challenge their friends to beat the puzzles that they have created via the WiiConnect24 chanel. Sort of like a Wii version of Sony’s Little Big Planet.

“We developed BOOM BLOX with endless combinations of gameplay in mind,” says Louis Castle, Executive Producer. “With over three hundred levels, built upon a full real-time physics model, your experience can be as easy or difficult as you want it to be. There really is something for everyone to enjoy.”

Boom Blox will be available for the Wii in May.
