Limbo, Splosion Man & Trials HD Triple Pack

Limbo, Splosion Man & Trials HD Triple Pack

Retail disc of three XBLA smash hits

Written by zigs00 on 10 March 11 at 00:52

In surprising news today, Twisted Pixel's CEO Michael Wilford has confirmed that three of the Xbox Live Arcade's best titles will be released together on a retail disc next month.

It had been previously announced that Japanese gamers would be getting a retail Triple Pack of Limbo, Splosion Man and Trials HD (image below), but Wilford confirmed that North American gamers will be getting the disc too.

Wilford also tweeted a link to its Amazon.com listing, which shows a release date of April 12th and a price of $29.99 - which, maths fans, means that the retail disc will be $10 cheaper than it would cost to buy all three via the Marketplace. Do note though that Microsoft haven't confirmed either the price or release date, so both could be incorrect placeholders.

There has been no word about a PAL release for the Triple Pack.

Solid group of games. Saving the $10 would be great unless you already have 1 of the three.

Ach. Already got 'Splosion Man. The Trials demo never really impressed me. Still need to get Limbo though.
OK, it was me. I started the fire.

Not saving any money, but there's plenty of gamers who prefer buying retail to digital games.

Damn, only need Limbo. I'll just wait a couple months, and buy it used from my local Gamestop for a couple bucks.

Nice! I've been starting to get into Arcade games and since this is on disc form it's even more incentive to pick up these sweet games.

I can't fathom why 'Splosion Man get such high praise. I'm sorry, but it's essentially the same level all the way through, it really doesn't get that much more difficult or entertaining. It's only fun on multiplayer with friends.

Trials is great though. :)
