Coming to PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 later this year
At GDC, SEGA has announced and revealed some details on the quad-based first-person shooter video game, Aliens: Colonial Marines.
Developed by Gearbox Software, the team behind the Brothers In Arms series, this new title will see us in control of classic Aliens weaponry ranging from pulse rifles to flamethrowers as well as brand-new equipment and skills all within a squad-based combat system.Your role in the game will be as part of a United States Colonial Marine squad who are preparing to face an alien assault.
There will be a story driven single-player mode and a four player co-op mode allowing players to share the experience with three friends. In co-op mode, each player will assume the persona of a Colonial Marine and have a distinct role to play in the completion of every mission. Additionally, more multiplayer modes will be revealed later in the year.
SEGA say that thhe game will "retain the atmospheric look and feel of the original films while leveraging next-generation technology to create an entirely new interactive Aliens experience."
