This is a bit of an odd duck, but it's been announced that The Warriors is heading to Xbox Live Arcade as a brand new videogame. Published by Paramount Digital Entertainment, this new game is in celebration of The Warriors' 30th anniversary, and takes the form of a scrolling brawler.

CTXM, known for previous XBLA titles Heavy Weapon and Feeding Frenzy, are taking the development reigns on this one, and there's no connection to the Rockstar-developed Warriors title of last generation.

The game is scheduled for a summer release, and will join a host of other celebratory products, including a comic book series.
