Sega Reveals Aliens: Colonial Marines' New Escape Mode
Sega and Gearbox have announced a new mode for the upcoming Aliens: Colonial Marines. In Escape, players team up in squads of four to race through a map, destroying as many xenomorphs as possible or making it to the escape point alive.
A demo of the game is playable at PAX, which starts today in Seattle. If you're in the neighborhood, stop by Sega's booth (#s 242 and 252). You can also get your picture taken inside a special 16-foot replica of the powerloader that punched the queen in the face. Even if you're not interested in Aliens, you should swing by. Guaranteed, someone will fall out of that thing and it will be absolutely hilarious.
If you're looking for more impressions on the game in general, and not necessarily Escape mode, take a look at Tim's hands-on preview of the game. We'll have details on Escape mode in the coming days.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
