The new game offers six new worlds to explore over 60 uniquely challenging stages.

By teaming up with some of Frogger\u2019s friends, players can also destroy obstacles, absorb damage or illuminate dark spaces as they progress through the game. Players can also show off their skills within the game\u2019s Forever\u2019 mode Street Pass battles where the aim is to avoid becoming road-kill, while a competitive slant is added within four-player matches.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>First introduced in 1981, KONAMI initially developed the game for arcade game machines, before expanding on to a host of home formats.
