Rebellion, the UK-based developer behind the PC classic Aliens versus Predator, is hard at work on a brand new ultra-gory series instalment... on PSP.
The new game will be based on the upcoming movie sequel by 20th Century Fox, and going by the screenshots we've seen it looks like it's a third-person action game. More details are due in the Official PSP Magazine, which should be in shops any time now.
When we contacted Rebellion it refused to comment on the new AvP game, but added, "We're happy to be working with Sierra, but can't comment just yet in any more detail." We're still waiting for an official statement from Vivendi, but expect some kind of official announcement shortly.
Disappointingly there's no sign of the first-person PC sequel we were wishing for, though hopefully Rebellion will be able to re-capture the excellent multi-race mechanics of the original in the new handheld version.
Look for more details - and the first screenshots - soon.
As long as the game has a feature where you get destroy DVDs of the AVP movie in multiple ways I'll be happy, Alien acid blood, machine gun, flame thrower, predater weapons. Just f**k the movies and make good games!!!
They should just put up the jaguar version on live arcade.
LOL!!! I still remember playing that with surround sound and crapping myself when an Alien pops up out of nowhere on the first level, then crapping myself even more when you're wondering around and you suddenly hear "turn around!"
Bring out a AvP FPS for the 360 & PS3 damnit!!!! not that piece of crap: Extinction that came out!
psp..... That will be well immersive... You alone on the northern line being jostled around by... erm... predators, aliens... no, commuters! Yes, I see it now! As you use the secondary fire on your oyster card to blow those mothers away! 3rd person too! Oh joy. Actually, I'm looking forward to the Ripley edition on the sims. I hear they're making AvPkart as well. Where you can race other cuddly characters in terrifyingly immersive 16 colour levels!
