PS3 owners might have to be content with the first game in the newly revamped series just now, but if you’re equipped with an Xbox 360 or a PC capable of more than just browsing TSA, rejoice in the news that part two, Alien Breed: Assault, is coming this week.
According to the developers, the Unreal Engine 3 powered top-down shooter 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.”
In addition to the new two player mode, Assault will also feature choreographed set pieces, new armour, two new guns (a chain gun and a rocket launcher) and new aliens.
Assault hits Wednesday 22nd September 2010.

I really enjoyed Alien Breed back in the Amiga days but the recent demo didn’t give me much in the way of a nostalgia glow.

Sweet, there is an advert for this game when you complete the single player in the credits and it indeed says “coming soon”. I’ll be getting it for sure, the first game is excellent.
