Aliens Goes Into “Horde Mode”

One of the games that is on my definite pick up list next year is [amazon_link id=”B005THAX6K” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Aliens: Colonial Marines[/amazon_link] and now the guys at Gearbox have revealed a new multiplayer mode for the game.

The Survivor mode will see a team of four marines controlled through online cooperative multiplayer as they try survive against wave after wave of xenomorph attacks. Does it sound overly original? No, but it doesn’t have to because when you think about it the movie Aliens is basically a two and a half hour survivor mode so let’s just say that this game has as good a reason to have one as any other.

Have a look at the trailer below to see Survivor mode in action.

Aliens: Colonial Marines releases on February 12, 2013.
