Major Nelson just dropped the bomb for the XBLA release this week; being Darwinia+

if your a fan of the PC phenomenon which is Darwinia, you will therefore be happy that you’ll be seeing all your pixel sized friends jumping around your XBLA marketplace this Wednesday!

The world of the peaceful Darwinians has been decimated by an evil virus and without your help they have no hope of survival. Play the full campaign or take control of a Multiwinian army and challenge your friends to some digital carnage in this IGF award winning action-strategy classic from Introversion Software. It’s a stick man slaughter where only the flattest survive.
