Majesco Sales Inc. today announced plans to publish Ultra Bust-A-Move for the Xbox. The latest version from the addictive, bubble-bursting video game franchise features five new puzzle types, hundreds of puzzles and full Xbox Live support, including head-to-head play.

"The highly addictive game play of Ultra Bust-A-Move has established this franchise as a timeless classic and Majesco is pleased to bring the latest incarnation to the Xbox," said Ken Gold, Vice President of Marketing for Majesco. "With the opportunity for consumers to compete via Xbox Live and with the addition of advanced features such as a 3D puzzle mode, both long-time fans and newcomers to the franchise will enjoy the 2004 version."

In Ultra Bust-A-Move, players launch randomly colored balls from the bottom of the field in an attempt to attach them to bubbles of the same color. Once three bubbles of the same color are touching, they pop, causing all connected bubbles to drop. Players keep going until all the bubbles are gone.
