Get Ready For Hothead's Swarm On 360 and PS3
Whether you’re talking about bees, rats, or killer whales, most swarms terrify us. That is not the case with the dopey blue blobs in Hothead's new DLG, Swarm. The company just announced that its new title would be headed to Xbox Live and PSN sometime early next year.
If the game sounds familiar to you it’s probably because Hothead (Penny Arcade Adventures, DeathSpank) announced the titled earlier in the year during PAX. The big news today is that the title will be coming to both Xbox Live and PSN.
From what we’ve seen of the game, it looks like a fun platformer that encourages replay. Players control a whole swarm of blue creatures, and are even encouraged to kill some of them off as they make their way through deadly obstacle courses.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
