They’re in the walls…and the floor…and now they’re on your face, killing you. Yes, the xenomorphs of Aliens: Colonial Marines might be one of the scariest creatures to have ever been created by a human mind. Brought to us in an original piece of art by H.R. Giger, 20th Century Fox took the ball and ran with it and gave us the Aliens franchise - as well as a game designed by Gearbox Software. How does it look? So far, very promising.
Definitely one of the most beloved sci-fi films and one of James Cameron’s most celebrated movies, Aliens has set the stage for the upcoming Aliens: Colonial Marines - which expands on the story and allows us to follow the space marines who have been dispatched to LV-426 to investigate.
Obviously, they run into the local population of xenos and things go down the drain from there. The first gameplay teaser for Colonial Marines gave us bits and pieces of gameplay - but nothing too substantial.
Happily, Gearbox has released a lengthy gameplay video, narrated by CEO Randy Pitchford, that will allow gamers to see the kind of work the company has put in to make the game accessible and as loyal to the franchise as possible.
So enough of the blabbering, watch the Aliens: Colonial Marines gameplay trailer below and see what you think:
