Banjo-Tooie will hit the Xbox Live Arcade on April 29th
Two new sets of gamerpics will also be released in a couple of weeks
By now, you’ve probably made LOG’s Lost Challenges your bitch. You’ve seen the trailer released during the Easter weekend on Stop ‘n’ Swop, eager to find out what took ten-plus years to do. Today, and finally, Rare has announced a April 29th release for the game. No official price has been set yet, but it will likely be the same than BK XBLA (that would be 1200 Microsoft Points), according to a Rare source.

True to their word, Rare has also updated the site with a new game page. By new, we of course mean the same page used back before Rare’s website was redesigned for the fifth time back in 2002. No new screenshots or a new trailer to see, though. You can also check out all the available stuff in our own game page, with new details of the game coming soon.
Along with the release date, a couple of new bunches of gamerpics has been announced to hit the Xbox Live Markpetplace in two weeks. As usual, each pack will be offered for 80 Microsoft Points.

Last, but certainly not least, MundoRare will have an exclusive interview with 4J Studios regarding their work on the XBLA Banjo titles faster than you can say “Stop ‘N’ Swop.” So be sure to stay tuned.
