Sega has formally announced that coming ‘late 2008′ is Aliens: Colonial Marines. In the game you play as a part of the United States Colonial Marine squad and “prepare to face an alien assault”. Gearbox is developing the title, they are the good people responsible for bringing us the Halo 1 PC port. I’ve been waiting for an Aliens game since Aliens vs. Predator 2 back on the PC and it looks like Colonial Marines will fill this void nicely.
There have been some screenshots released (below) and they paint a good atmosphere for the game. I’m hoping is a horror shooter, and if it is I’m hoping its done well. The game has a lot of potential and I’d hate to see it go the way of other shooters like Blacksite: Area 51 which outright stunk.
See the rest of the screenshots after the jump.







cool
holy shit those screen shots look really good.
Finally, an Aliens based game that looks like a worthy followup to AvP2 (which although a great game, was sorely lacking in many ways). Too bad there won’t be Predators, but the screenies look promising. Any news on the game engine?
