The 30th anniversary celebration of “The Warriors” will see the launch of an Xbox Live Arcade game based on the cult classic movie. The game comes from publisher Paramount Digital Entertainment and development studio CTXM, creators of XBLA titles “Heavy Weapon” and “Feeding Frenzy.” (No, Rockstar Games, developers of the 2005 “Warriors” game are not involved.)

The game looks to feature the movie’s key gangs, such as the Warriors and Baseball Furies, in a classic beat-em-up format.
