Set to arrive on Xbox Live Arcade next week are the first episode of Telltale Games's adventure series Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures, Square Enix's block-matching puzzler Yosumin Live and the word-builder Hasbro Family Game Night: Boggle.

The games will be available on Wednesday, priced at 800 Microsoft Points ($10) each.

Telltale Games has released The Last Resort, the second installment of its episodic adventure Wallace and Gromit's Grand Adventures based upon the beloved claymation.

When a murder derail's with Wallace and Gromit's plans to open West Wallaby Waterworld in their basement, it'll take the dynamic Deductomatic to catch the crook.

The Last Resort is now available to all subscribed to the series, and will be joined by two further episodes--Muzzled! and The Bogey Man--in June and July. Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures is also due a release on Xbox Live Arcade "soon".

Fright of the Bumblebees, the first episode of Telltale Games' new episodic adventure game Wallace and Gromit's Grand Adventures, has been released.

Based upon the popular stop-motion comedy characters, Fright of the Bumblebees promises garden gnomes, wacky schemes, romance and giant bees. The next three episodes will be released monthly to subscribers.

Telltale offers Wallace and Gromit's Grand Adventures with a 15% discount for launch week and, to sweeten the deal further, a 50% discount on everything else in your order. A demo is available on FileShack if you fancy some jollies with England's favourite clay man and dog before deciding whether to part with your wonga.

An Xbox Live Arcade release is expected this spring.

A downloadable PC demo for Fright of the Bumblebees, the first episode of Telltale's Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures, is now available from FileShack.

The full version of the first episode hits PC on March 24, with the following three entries to respectively follow in May, June and July. The studio is currently selling all four games for a combined priced of $26, with two other Telltale games thrown in for free.

The adventure series will hit Xbox Live Arcade too, but no release details on that yet.

The PC version of Telltale Games' upcoming adventure title Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures (XBLA, PC), based on the popular animated film series, will be released on March 24 according to the company.

Grand Adventures is a package of four Wallace and Gromit episodes, developing by Telltale in conjunction with Wallace creators Aardman Animations.

The PC version can now be pre-ordered from Telltale's site, which is offering a 25% discount package that includes an additional two free Telltale games.

Telltale Games, the creators of the recent Sam & Max episodic games, today announced that its upcoming series Wallace and Gromit's Grand Adventures will see its first release this spring on Xbox Live Arcade and PC.

Based on the acclaimed Wallace & Gromit animated films by Aardman Animation, the episodic adventure games will put players in the role of both Wallace and Gromit. Gromit is the beagle.

The release marks the first step in an expansion to Xbox Live by Telltale. Originally focusing on PC releases of its adventure games, the company has recently pushed its way onto consoles, shipping Sam and Max Season One and Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People to the Wii last year.

With Telltale having completed Sam & Max Season 2 earlier this year, and just wrapped up the first season of Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People, the studio is now focusing media attention on its upcoming episodic Wallace & Gromit adventure games.

To accomplish this task, Telltale today released the "first in-game screenshots" from Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures, and also provided some concept art.

The company has yet to say what platforms the famed Aardman Animation-created inventor-canine duo will hit, or exactly when the games will arrive next year.

Telltale Games has revealed the first character renders, concept art and a teaser trailer from its upcoming episodic series Wallace & Gromit's Grand Adventures.

Adapted from Aardman Animations' celebrated claymation series, episodes of Wallace & Gromit will feature adventure gameplay similar to other Telltale series Sam & Max (PC, Wii) and Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People (PC, Wii).

Telltale has not yet specified which platforms Wallace & Gromit will hit nor when it will arrive. Given Telltale's history, a PC version should be expected, with a strong possibility of a Wii release.
