There’s something new growing in the world Fat Princess and it’s not just dress sizes!

If you jump into an online game of Fat Princess anytime now through the end of November, you will see how much our beloved Princesses love to eat pumpkins during the Halloween and Thanksgiving holidays!

Happy Halloween from all of us here at SCEA Santa Monica and Fun Bits Interactive (formerly known as Atomic Operations Media).

Boo!

We’re proud to celebrate this occasion by slicing a few dollars off the price of Fat Princess, down to $7.49 as part of the Summer Sale on the PlayStation Network. Grab it fast since the sale ends on Tuesday, 8/10. We’re also whooping it up by releasing our very first Fat Princess single: Castle Intruder!

Fat Princess has been a labor of love for the development team here at Atomic Operations and our good friends in Santa Monica Studio, and it has been a highly rewarding experience for all of us to hear feedback from gamers around the world. We are constantly adorning our walls with Fat Princess fan art and jumping into games with clans online. We are reading the forums daily and we are always looking for ways to expand our Fat Princess world. (You do have the recently released Fat Roles DLC, right?

Thank you again and again to all the fans and clans who continue to spread the good word about the game. We are always amazed at the effort our fans put into supporting and growing the community, and we want you all to know how much we appreciate it.

Happy Birthday to Princess Plump and Princess Muffintop from the entire Fat Princess team!

Pirates, Ninjas and Giants (oh my!)!

Until then, see you all on the battlefield, and as always…

Cake for everyone!

You can see highlights in the video below, but cut us a little slack since this was shot weary-eyed just before E3 and we hadn’t had our royal makeover yet:

We’re also happy to announce that Fat Princess is doing her part to help roll out the red carpet for PlayStation Plus. Fat Roles DLC will be featured at a discounted price of $3.99 (20% off regular PSN price), and will also include some exclusive free Avatars!

Stay tuned, see you all on the battlefield, and as always…

Cake for everyone,

The Fat Princess Team

Fat Princess Fat Roles DLC (USD $4.99) unleashes Pirates, Ninjas and Giants (oh my!) into the world of Fat Princess. These three new character classes bring a whole new level of awesomeness to the frenzied 32-player battles alongside our beloved royal beauty.

After picking up the DLC, a new multi-class magic hat spawner will be activated in every level of Fat Princess. Pirates can call in cannon ball attacks, Ninjas can hide in the shadows to sneak through doors, and the all-mighty Giants can cause rumbling earthquakes and gain health by chomping on their enemies.

We’re also very happy to announce that Patch 1.06 activates the new Fat Princess Party feature!

Due to the overwhelming fan response, Patch1.06 delivers four-player same-console co-op for FREE to everyone who owns Fat Princess! Fans will be able to enjoy couch co-op in both online and offline games. Players will also be able to re-spawn at outposts, which adds a whole new level of co-op strategy to all gaming modes and levels.

And that’s not all. We’ve also included clan tags and password-protected games to make playing with your friends even more easy and fun.

And for those of you who have heard about the game, but have not yet sampled the cake…what are you waiting for? Go ahead and download the Full Fat Princess game on June 29 for just $14.99. It includes everything from the initial release updated all the way through Patch 1.06, so you get all of this great content (all original maps plus four recently released new maps, party feature, clan tags and loads of enhancements) in one fell swoop.

Stay tuned, see you all on the battlefield, and as always…

Cake for everyone,

The Fat Princess Team

*P.S. We mean it…stay tuned! :-)

We’ve seen pictures of people shoving cake in their mouths to win a code to be included in our initial online beta back in 2009. We’ve gasped in amazement at some truly epic battles captured from gameplay and posted on YouTube. And we’ve been graced with the beauty of fans donned in stunning Fat Princess cosplay.

So it got us thinking…who really is the biggest Fat Princess fan?

Our good friends over at Atomic Operations decided to pose that question at large, and are holding a contest starting today, Friday April 16, 2010. Show that YOU are the Biggest Fan of Fat Princess, and an AI character will be named after you in the next FP Patch Release.

There isn’t much time, so go to the Atomic Operations website NOW for all the details on how to enter and win.

Stay tuned, see you all on the battlefield, and as always…

Cake for everyone,

The Fat Princess Team

P.S. Don’t forget about next week’s San Francisco Fat Princess: Fistful of Cake (PSP) tournament!

The entire Fat Princess team loves your response to the recent patch for Fat Princess on the PS3! We love our fans and we are hard at work to make sure Fat Princess is as fun as it can be.

Thank you very much, and we look forward to hearing from you!

Today, March 25, we’ll be releasing Patch 1.05 which now includes *two* new FREE snow-themed maps called Frost Bite and Candy Mountain.

We know many people have wanted new maps, and we’re diligently trying to keep the community alive and together with these free maps. And for those of you who have heard about Fat Princess and – gasp! – have not yet played it, now is your chance to grab the game and you’ll get all of the original maps plus four additional maps for free!

We’ve also fixed a few issues recently brought to our attention:

• Warrior: Fixed to disallow shield activation when carrying objects, as well as attenuating damage against lava and drowning.
• Ice Mage: Changed level 1 area attack to slow enemies, not freeze them.
• Soccer map: Disabled online score saving for this level (sorry, all, but it was too easy to gain rank).

Last but certainly not least, we’re happy to announce that our beloved princess has a hot new suitor: Atomic Operations, a new developer based in Seattle, Washington. We have lots of exciting things underway, and all I can really say is “Yo ho ho and a slice of cake!” (nudge nudge wink wink) ;-)

Stay tuned, see you all on the battlefield, and as always…

Cake for everyone,

The Fat Princess Team
