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.

Alien Breed Evolution, see
