: Blood Bowl confirmed to be an XBLA release


The Official UK Xbox Magazine web page has finally confirmed that the upcoming game Blood Bowl by Cyanide Studios will be released at an Xbox Live Arcade title.

Originally announced for Xbox 360 back in November, the actual nature of the title was not initially specified until now.

Blood Bowl is based off the Games Workshop board game of the same title, where players can play a turn-based, bloody Orcs version of NFL Football - and is quite popular. Cyanide Studios made a similar game called Chaos League back in 2004 for the Xbox, so they have the knowledge to make it and do it well.
