Earlier this week, Electronic Arts and Hothead Games made a surprising announcement revealing that there will be a follow up to the vastly popular Hack and Slash RPG DeathSpank; titled DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue. Thongs of Virtue will center around DeathSpank’s journeys through a massive war-torn land, explore the North Pole and the high seas to locate six mystical thongs to bring peace and harmony to the universe. DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue (T.O.V.) will be available for download on September 22^nd for 1200 Microsoft Points.

Vlad Ceraldi, Director of Game Development for Hothead Games stated “Bigger, longer, harder, these were the words that drove us while we created the follow up to our introduction to the DeathSpank universe. In T.O.V., we’re taking action RPG fundamentals and adding loads of new creatures, environments, weapons and characters, while continuing to push the envelope with our signature humour.”
