Development
Although there had been rumors of an Invizimals sequel months prior, Shadow Zone was officially announced in a Sony Computer Entertainment Europe E3 2010 montage. This montage was released on the European PlayStation Store on June 16, 2010. However, it was removed from the Store the very next day.[4]
The title features over 100 new creatures to collect, the ability to modify the Invizimals via name, and colour changes, as well as the ability to choose from a larger selection of attacks. Shadow Zone features a new campaign, and a co-operative capture mode.[5]
