XBLA South Park Game Is A Tower Defense Game

Microsoft first announced a game based on South Park was coming to Xbox Live Arcade at E3 2008. It took a year, but we finally know what it is.

A press release detailing Microsoft’s participation at Comic-Con preemptively unveiled South Park: Let’s Go Tower Defense Play before a scheduled Saturday panel.

The game is an action/strategy game that lets players “jump into a raucous snowball fight as Cartman or Kenny.” Expect a mix of a snowball fight and tower defense when the game comes out on October 7, the same day new episodes of South Park premiere on Comedy Central.

Comic-Con attendees will get a chance to play South Park: Let’s Go Tower Defense Play at the show.
