505 Games has announced How to Survive, a new IP developed by EKO Studios and slated to hit Xbox Live Arcade this fall. Like the title suggests, How to Survive washes you up on shores of an archipelago off the coast of Columbia, where you’ll have to scavenge for food, water and scrap to form makeshift tools and weapons. The kicker? All this takes place in the wake of an “unexplained accident” introducing ravenous hordes of the undead to your new island home.

The isometric twin-stick zombie shooter boasts a hefty crafting system, unique survival guide and a stable of playable characters. In addition, players have the opportunity to band together in local and online multiplayer, or put their skills to the test in a series of challenge modes. Hit the jump to check out more screens from How to Survive.

For fans of massive free-to-play games, online competitive multiplayer, or the holy union of vehicles and cannons, Microsoft’s E3 press conference should have got your blood pumping. The announcement of the PC juggernaut World of Tanks making its way to Xbox Live Arcade means hours of content, roaming the countryside and quaint hilltop villages, dispensing large-caliber high-velocity shells into friend and foe — all for the low, low price of free.

World of Tanks: Xbox 360 Edition features 15-on-15 multiplayer battles with more than 60 historically accurate American and German tanks, ranging from speedy light-armor to hulking behemoths. Set to release this summer, World of Tanks: Xbox 360 Edition is now accepting applications for access to the beta. This beta is exclusive to Gold members, however, anyone with a Silver account will have the opportunity to test drive the game for a seven day trial when it officially launches.

Update: We reached out for more information on when you can expect the beta to go live. Though a date has not been announced, expect to hear more soon.

@I_AmNotAMonster We haven't released a date yet, but it will be soon. We'll let everyone know as soon as we have that info!
