Get ‘˜Spanked on Mac this Holiday Season!

Have the holidays got you stressed? Get your aggression out by throwing down with Santa and his mighty red thong as you play through the fiendishly funny DeathSpank series! Hothead Games and EA are stuffing your digital stockings this season with a double dose of DeathSpank. Available for download today, gamers can purchase the whimsical DeathSpank and DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue on the Mac OSX for $14.99 each via Steam, the leading platform for both Mac and PC games.

Awarded IGN’s Editor’s Choice for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, DeathSpank takes players on a colorful adventure through crazy quests in a vast world filled with vibrant, eccentric and hilarious characters. Along his journey, DeathSpank will rescue orphans, defeat a local tyrant, help an aging adventurer and dive headfirst into an even deeper mystery.  The game’s accessibility makes for a fun, addictive experience where players will find themselves solving wild puzzles, collecting massive amounts of loot and be entertained by witty dialogue. DeathSpank also features local co-op, allowing companions to jump in and out of gameplay on the same console, playing as both DeathSpank and his trusty sidekick, Sparkles the Wizard. 

In DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue players embark on a brand new quest to destroy the six mystical thongs which have taken over the universe by corrupting those who wear them. Players will travel through war-torn country sides, outer space and even the North Pole to fight in an epic battle against the Evil Santa. DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue also includes a local co-op mode, allowing a second player to aid DeathSpank in his search for the infamous thongs as either of his two trusty sidekicks, Sparkles the Wizard or Ninjatastic Steve.

Gamers who download DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue for Mac will receive two pieces of free downloadable content: the Snowy Mountain Dungeon, a terrifying, ice-covered dungeon frozen in the North Pole and a new playable co-op character, Sidekick Tankko.
