Hey guys! Hope you guys had a great holiday and new year, we're glad to be posting some news finally. The Hunger Games Adventures has revealed the official location of District 3, interestingly enough just north of District 12. I think I have always thought of District 3 in the vicinity of 2, but I guess anywhere is suitable to put a bunch of factories in North America. 

To answer the burning question of whether this is Suzanne approved, we're going to give you an ambiguous yeeeeeessss??? We know Suzanne was consulted for the creation of THGA, so it is possible Suzanne approved the "official" map.

Finally! The official map of Panem has been released as we posted earlier (there's actually more districts revealed in that post), but here's a press release of this awesome news. Here's the catch....you have to play The Hunger Games Adventures on Facebook to see for yourselves where the rest of the districts go!

FUNTACTIX AND LIONSGATE REVEAL NEW MAP OF PANEM INSIDE THE HUNGER GAMES ADVENTURES

Funtactix, a worldwide developer and publisher of social games based on the world’s premier box office films, in partnership with Lionsgate, yesterday revealed an exciting new addition to The Hunger Games Adventures, one of the hottest social games on the Facebook platform. This landmark release offers an exclusive look at a new map of Panem. The map is one of the most anticipated updates to the game and arrives as part of a series of new content reveals leading up to the DVD release of the film on August 18.

For the first time, Hunger Games fans can use the new map of Panem as they explore the world of the film and novel, complete quests for their favorite heroes and unlock all-new stories inside the world they love. Thus far, the epic adventures of the game have led fans to the Capitol, District 12, District 11 and, most recently, District 2. In the coming months, new districts will be revealed exclusively through the new map, along with an exciting storyline that will take players on a journey from obscure citizen of District 12 to a hero capable of unlocking Panem’s deepest secrets.

The (Partial) Official Map of Panem from The Hunger Games Adventures

So if you haven't been playing The Hunger Games Adventures (I'm a little behind on my quests shhh) you would know of the Capitol seal quest to reveal the OFFICIAL Map of Panem. We've seen fan-made maps before, but this is official! Anyway, when enough Capitol seals were collected by players of The Hunger Games Adventures, the map of Panem would be revealed, and finally, that day has come!

As you can see, not all of the map has been revealed yet. As new chapters of the game are released, you will travel to other parts of Panem and then those parts of the map will unlock. I haven't gotten to District 2 yet and am currently on a District 12 quest so my map looks like this:

As many have suspected, parts of present day North America are underwater (sadly Courtney and I are too) and parts of Mexico and Canada are included in Panem.

Any surprises here?
