Aliens: Colonial Marines Coming In 2012
Sega and developer Gearbox Software have announced that the long-delayed Aliens: Colonial Marines is finally coming in 2012.
The PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 title will appear on shelves sometime in the spring of 2012. Of course, no game is immune to being delayed multiple times, but the fact that both companies are confident enough about the timeframe to put out a press release about it – and that it's relatively far away – hopefully means that this particular release window is doable.
The game features drop in/out co-op play, and hopes to replicate the frantic, claustrophobic, and eerie vibe of the Aliens film.
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.
