Summer of Arcade hits Xbox 360 on July 18

Microsoft has announced its Summer of Arcade will kick off on July 18, and last till August 15, during which time, Xbox members will get a 400 Point credit (or roughly $5) if they purchase three of the five games on offer, each of which cost 1,200 Microsoft Points, except for the one Kinect title, at 800.

Part of the list, is the HD-version of Tony Hawk Pro Skater, developed by Robomoto under Activision, is expected feature additional content with this edition in the form of extra maps, which will otherwise cost more than the requisite 1200 Points.

The list of titles and their Xbox Live availability dates is as follows:

• Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD – July 18 – 1,200 MSP / $15
• Wreckateer – July 25 – 800 MSP / $10
• Deadlight – August 1 – 1,200 MSP / $15
• Hybrid – August 8 – 1,200 MSP / $15
• Dust: An Elysian Tail – August 15 – 1,200 MSP / $15

As you remember, Wreckateer was shown off back at E3 2012, at Microsoft’s press conference earlier this month. A castle siege game with Kinect support might just be an innovative enough idea.
