Worms 2 : Armageddon sortira mercredi prochain !

Nous nous y attendions mais nous pouvons désormais vous le confirmer : le mercredi 1er juillet sera le jour de l’arrivée de Worms 2 : Armageddon sur le Xbox Live Arcade. Ce sera donc le second Worms à sortir sur le service de Microsoft après la sortie du premier en mars 2007. Celui-ci avant reçu un bel accueil mais avait toutefois déçu beaucoup de monde du fait de son contenu plus que limité.

Worms 2 : Armageddon corrigera cela en proposant une nuée de nouveautés dont 5 armes inédites, le retour de plusieurs armes symboliques comme le Super Mouton, la batte de baseball, le parachute, le napalm et l’incontournable Sainte Grenade !

Le jeu sera bien entendu blindé de contenus en toute sorte qui sont détaillés en anglais ci-dessous. A noter que les Avatars seront présents. Le tout sera proposé au très sympathique prix de 800 MS Points, le même prix que le premier à sa sortie en somme.
