Invertebrates Invade! "Worms" Now Available on Xbox Live Arcade
Worms have evolved and are taking no prisoners! Team17 Software Ltd. brings its popular "Worms" franchise to Xbox Live Arcade, delivering the first turn-based strategy game to the platform. "Worms" will be available for download on Xbox Live Arcade for Xbox 360 beginning Wednesday, March 7 at 0800 GMT (1 a.m. PST).
"Worms" is a cleverly balanced turn-based strategy game in which teams of heavily armed worms battle across bizarre, randomly generated landscapes for supremacy. Each team takes turns picking off opposing team members using crazy weapons, tools and other utilities along with whatever foul strategies they can devise. The simple and cute appearance belies the deep strategy of a game that is easy to play but difficult to master.
"Worms" will be available worldwide for 800 Microsoft Points.
