Alien Breed Evolution Pricing Confusion - The Score

DON'T PANIC!!!

Posted by Staff
The good news: Alien Breed Evolution is out on Xbox Live today. The bad news: there seems to be some confusion over the price and it's availability. More good news: SPOnG has answers.

Microsoft's Acey Bongos (community manager for Europe) has generated a bit of confusion by re-tweeting a post that stated, "Alien Breed Evolution (Episode 1) is out on Xbox Live Arcade right now". That tweet comes with a link that leads to the Norwegian Xbox site, which has Evolution priced at 1200 Microsoft Points - 50% more than the 800 points it's meant to cost.

Confusing matters more is the fact that the game isn't even up on Xbox Live Marketplace in the UK.

Anyway, SPOnG got on the phone to Team17 and can confirm that the game will be on the UK Marketplace later today and will cost 800 points. The developer-cum-publisher has got in touch with Microsoft regarding the price. OK, breathe out.

For more on (the rather good) Alien Breed Evolution, see SPOnG's latest preview.

Well it is on the marketplace and is currently priced at 1200 MS points. The confusion continues it would seem.
