We'd already heard last week about the free game Happy Wars coming to the Xbox Live Arcade, and now we have a trailer showing off its full cute glory. The game promises players the ability to take part in "exciting castle siege and magic spell battle action for madcap free-for-all battles in fantasy world settings," all done in a friendly, cartoonish style that is suitable for everyone.

Though the inevitable in-game purchases have yet to be revealed, developer Toylogic promises that whatever they are they will be "lavishly rendered." So the item shop where you spend all your hard-earned dough (or your parents' hard-earned dough, as the case may be) will look super pretty.

Happy Wars is due out this Fall. Check out the trailer below and let us know what you think.

This better not be for Kinect because recently Microsoft is giving out all the goods for Kinect and they have forgotten about us people that don't have the 'camera-motion sensor-microphone' thingy.
 
It looks like a pretty fun game, hopefully it's not console-locked and neither is it only multiplayer but also single player.

Kind of Fat Princess for Xbox, although, I never really enjoyed Fat Princess, to be honest. This looks fun, though!
 
That so, Michael? Oh well, it's still great to have another free full game.

Flowzilla, could you upload it here to see if it's console-all or console-locked? It might be, and might be not, I dunno. Not an expert to say for sure.

Yeah, I'll try to upload it to my Mediafire account. I can't really play it though. I need to have a Gold Membership in order to get through the 'press start' menu.

Edit: I forgot Digiex had it's own upload thingy. I'm not sure if I can upload a 500 MB file though. Let's see....
 
That's cool, doesn't show up on my dashboard so cheers for uploading it!

/edit Yes it is, didn't realise there was a beta channel.

/double edit Bleh, UK, US, JPN only. Looks like i will steal flowzilla's once it's up
 
Well, that's a bummer. It can't be added to the others then.

Anyway, is it possible to download it without having a Gold membership, if so, how? I wanna get this regardless.

You can download it without Gold. You just won't be able to get past the Start Menu. Just like me.:)

To download it, you have to go to the BETA section on the dashboard. It's next to Settings. You can't miss it.

Also: Can someone erase the thread I made for this game. Thank you.

Rightey Flowzilla, that must've been add very recently because back then I didn't see any "beta" section there last night. It's downloading now. Thanks. :)
 
Never even knew this was on the beta dash, nice find.

Dont think its something ill play, i gave the beta ago and found it pretty boring. Maybe if i was younger i would have enjoyed it more, looks to be aimed more at kids i guess.
 
IGN's guys are so misinfomed and stupid, it's kind of hard to take them seriously sometimes...

This is NOT the first free to play Xbox game, there's more than 11+ games free to keep forever and they're really cool, like Harms Way, Crash Course, Dash of Destruction, Bug Bash, Mars Rover Landing, Aegis Wing, etc.
 
Bug Bash? Never heard of it, but the other games you mentioned are not "free 2 play." They are free, yes, but f2p does not mean "free." It means that the base game is free, but there are micro-payments to make the game more enjoyable. Bug Village on WP7 is a prime example. And a fun fact, Joy Ride was supposed to be the first f2p Xbox Live game, but Microsoft scrapped that idea and made it a Kinect game.
 
Bug Bash was a arcade game that was actual never released, there is a beta version that does work on retail consoles.
 
I've played the game, and it's really enjoyable, personally.

The game does indeed have a Single Player mode, but I don't know exactly why it demands to play with a Gold account. Maybe the full version will have both for Silver and Gold.
