There's a new trailer out for Sega and Gearbox's FPS, Aliens: Colonial Marines. There's a bit too much of a Duke Nukem vibe from the CO narrator, but it does indeed kick ass. As for the music, well, it is developed by Gearbox, so of course a little wub wub is to be expected. Check it out below!
Pitched as a direct story sequel to the movie "Aliens," players wil return to the LV-426 with another crew of grunts (one of whom must have at least a class 3 rating) to search the planet for the missing Ellen Ripley and fellow marines. Settings will include the infamous derelict ship, Hadley's Hope, Alien Hive, and the U.S.S Sulaco.
Some screens were released not too long ago that hinted at new alien types, and possibly some modes for the game's multiplayer.
As seen in the above trailer, Marine firepower like the smartgun, flamethrower, and the infamous pulse rifle will once again be used to blast away. Remember: short, controlled bursts. Also, gamers will have the ability to weld doors shut, and set up sentry guns, just like Hicks and Hudson did in the movies.
Both the Alien films and videogames have a history of tense, creepy moments, and paranoia. Marines is expected to be no different, so stay frosty.
Aliens: Colonial Marines will release for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC on Feb. 12, 2013, and on the Wii U in March, so there's still time to pre-order that Collector's Edition.
