You may not have heard of Electronic Arts, a boutique publishing label based in Redwood City, Calif.

I’ve yet to play a Deathspank game. I want to at some point, I just haven’t gotten around to it yet.
There will be a new DeathSpank game this summer and it will involve a quest for the Fires of Bacon. It will also be a greatly improved follow-up to last year’s downloadable DeathsSank adventures, two comedic riffs on Diablo.
Deathspank is coming to PC later this month, and a little later, to the Mac as well.

Hothead Games, the studio that brought you Deathspank, has been showing off their new IP at PAX recently. Swarm is a cute, humorous platformer with a cool art style in which you control up to 50 swarmlings at once – and occasionally sacrifices need to be made for the good of the many.
