Death Tank is coming to Xbox Live Arcade on Wednesday, February 18th. We’re not talking about the old Sega Saturn version, but a complete remake by Snowblind Studios. If you don’t recall the original it is a lot like Worms, but in real time. For $15 (1200 Microsoft Points), Death Tank supports Xbox Live multiplayer with up to eight players, eight destructible maps, and upgraded HD graphics.
