Taking the fight to the Alien Invaders!
London, UK- September 20th, 2010 - Continuing the phenomenal success of
Alien Breed(tm): Evolution (XBLA) and Alien Breed(tm): Impact (PC, PSN),
Team17 are very proud to announce the official release date of Alien
Breed(tm) 2: Assault on Xbox(tm) LIVE Arcade and for PC via Steam as
Wednesday 22nd September 2010.
Alien Breed(tm) 2: Assault is the second chapter in the Alien Breed(tm)
series, and is an explosive science fiction arcade-shooter with an epic
story, swarms of highly intelligent alien enemies and highly detailed
environments, developed using Epic Games' Unreal(r) Engine 3. Assault
finds the player taking control of Conrad, Chief Engineer aboard the
dying ship Leopold and continuing his fight for survival across the
fatally damaged space vessel. His only hope relies on reigniting the
alien space craft's monstrous engines to rescue him from impending
annihilation, but to do this he will have to survive wave after wave of
relentless alien assaults. In addition to the thrilling single-player
campaign and all new "Survivor" modes, the game also offers
action-packed, two-player online co-operative battle modes.
"As the second adventure in the Alien Breed trilogy, we're really happy
with how much Assault adds to an already strong gameplay formula. We've
got some awesomely destructive new weapons to purchase and upgrade, two
monstrous new boss battles, and some really exciting set-pieces", says
John Dennis, Head of Design at Team17 Software Ltd. "Add to this our
brand-new Survivor Mode, which pits players against relentless waves of
enemies in either single-player or two-player co-op, and the
stress-inducing, claustrophobic experience of moving ever deeper into a
space station infested with blood-thirsty aliens, and you get a very
strong offering that we hope will please both Alien Breed fans and
players new to the game alike."
KEY FEATURES:
NEW - "Survivor" mode: Resist endless waves of intense alien
horde attacks in specifically designed arena environments, or team up
with a friend in order to reach the highest score in two-player
co-operative assaults!
NEW - Set Pieces - Fight the breed through stunningly
choreographed action sequences.
NEW - More equipment to combat the horde including Hardened
Armour and new weaponry:
o Hyper Blaster - a destructive chain-gun.
o Rocket Launcher - blow the horde away!
NEW - Alien Foes - Enter into conflict with the all-new
'Webber' alien and endure dramatic encounters with new and shocking
bosses.
Epic Single-Player story mode - The single-player campaign
mode that follows the continuing narrative of the game through five huge
and challenging environments.
Two-player co-operative play mode - Work together to defeat
the alien horde across specially customised assault maps for two
players, over Steam or Xbox(tm) LIVE Arcade.
Exclusive Xbox(tm) LIVE Avatar award items - 'Barnes' Helmet
and Body Armour (male and female versions) awarded to the player by
killing a set number of aliens (the helmet) and by completing the
single-player story mode (the body armour).
