Swarm heading to PSN/XBLA in 2011

Hothead's latest gets platform details.

UTV Ignition has announced that Hothead's upcoming action puzzle game thing, Swarm, is heading to PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade.

Announced earlier this year, Swarm involves guiding 50 "Swarmites" to the end of a load of levels, dodging through all sorts of "gauntlets of destruction" in an "often suicidal battle for survival", collecting DNA along the way.

We hadn't previously been told which platforms to expect Swarm for, but now we have. Exciting times.

The game's still on for release in "early 2011" and you can get a sense of how it's shaping up in the trailer below.
