مرسلة بواسطة The Best في 1:45 AM

One of the more indie platformer well regarded in the history of video games is coming to Xbox Live Arcade soon, and today we found out exactly when. To our surprise, Spelunky will be hitting XBLA in just over a week on July 4.

Created by designer Derek Yu (Aquaria), Spelunky is fairly non-traditional platform. Rather than pre-made levels of games like Super Mario Bros., Spelunky has randomly generated environments that promote a unique experience every time you play.

The situation is aggravated by the fact that death is permanent in Spelunky. One wrong move will force you to restart the game and deal with the 10 (randomly generated) life cycle all over again.

It 'was one of the most anticipated XBLA for a while' time so we are anxious to try and see if the experience has been faithfully carried. E 'was also available as a free download since its launch in December 2008.

The XBLA version will be coming just two weeks before the start of the summer of Microsoft Arcade promotion. You can view the trailer release of the game below.
