The first look at the reinvented Team 17 classic

Team 17 today posted the first shots from it's Unreal 3-powered XBLA update of the classic Amiga top-down shooter.

In the latest issue of games™, studio director Martyn Brown said of the game: "We're really proud of what we've done. It's a title we've wanted to do for a long time and it's very exciting to finally be doing it."

Team 17 are still best known for the Worms franchise, and the studio has also worked on other publishers IPs, but Brown knows which he prefers. "There's a gulf of difference between something that's our own and something that isn't. We've ended up with something that's kind of a mish-mash of Dead Space and Diablo III, which is a really nice place to be."

Look out for a preview in the forthcoming issue of games™, and follow the link to read a Team 17 retrospective interview.
