WiiWare, XBLA: Ben 10 Coming To Xbox Live Arcade And WiiWare

Konami Digital Entertainment appear to be taking digital distribution quite seriously - today they've announced that they'll be bringing the popular Ben 10: Alien Force license to Xbox Live Arcade and WiiWare.

Ben 10 Alien Force: The Rise of Hex is an action-puzzle platformer where you'll have the ability to transform into 10 different aliens. Players will utilize each alien to battle through 15 levels to save the Earth from destruction.

It's interesting to see that Konami got the license to Ben 10 - previously all Ben 10 games were released by D3 at retail. Even stranger is the distinction of being for XBLA and WiiWare and missing the PlayStation Network entirely.

Not quite sure who the developer is, and no screenshots are currently available, so who knows what it might end up like or whether the two versions will be vastly different. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
