Developer Team 17 confirmed last month that the funny multiplayer classic Worms will be coming to Xbox Live Arcade in all it’s 2D glory. Now that it’s being prepared for release in early 2007, the first details are starting to leak:
* Price is said to be 800 Microsoft Points (that’s $10 / €9.60 / £6.80).
* Release date will a few weeks from now, so in January 2007.
* As Microsoft requires, the game will be in HD and 720p.
* Of course it’s playable over Xbox Live, and even better is that the friends beside you complement your friends online in multiplayer matches.
* Play online with headsets and full voice communication.
* Team 17 will release a good mix of content later on, some will be free and some will be chargeable, but you won’t need it to continue playing the game.
