The game was targeted for a fall release, however, Gearbox Software prez Randy Pitchford announced today that an official release date has been set…but it is in 2013. You’ll be able to get the game on February 13th. I suppose you cannot really be mad because the it never had a “for sure” 2012 date, just be happy it’s still coming.
Now, the good news – a new trailer, entitled “suspense,” is here. You’ll find it inside!
Aliens: Colonial Marines begins with an ostensibly abandoned ship, the U.S.S. Sulaco, recovered in orbit around LV-426. Players lead a group of highly trained United States Colonial Marines as they board the deserted craft to uncover the fate of the crew. They will have to fight to survive unspeakable horrors and their own anxieties as they chase down the truth behind a galaxy-spanning deception that places humanity at the mercy of the most murderous and deadly species in the universe. Aliens: Colonial Marines features authentic environments, such as the surface of LV-426 and Hadleys Hope, weapons inspired by the film series and is designed to provide an exhilarating and engaging new chapter in the Aliens universe.
