Aliens: Colonial Marines Launches February 12, 2013

There was a time when we thought we'd see Aliens: Colonial Marines in the Spring...of 2010.  There was also a time when we thought we'd see the game coming this Fall.  Sadly I've run out of movie quotes to use for the latest delay.  Today, Gearbox and SEGA have announced the "official" release date for the four player co-op game - and that date is - February 12th, 2013.

A new trailer has been released called "Suspense" which was created from gameplay footage.  Needless to say it looks pretty intense.

Aliens: Colonial Marines will feature four player cooperative play througout the campaign. The console versions will features local split-screen play as well as four player online co-op.  The game is set to be released on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC with a WiiU release coming as well, though that won't be available on February 12th.

Sorry about the loud thud... that was just the sound of my jaw dropping. I know what I'll be doing on Feb 12th.

I wonder if it's a development or competition related delay? Halo and COD are the two big hitters this Autumn/Winter.

Possible, but with all these delays I know for a fact I won't be buying this on release day. But I hope it is being delayed for the right reasons

Plus Borderlands 2.

Arh yes, forgot about that! That's probably the most likely reason then - it's probably best not to compete with yourself!

Was somewhat expecting this tbh. Considering I'll be playing Diablo 3, Torchlight 2 and trying to finish up Borderlands 1's DLC for the remainder of this year, I actually don't mind the delay... better to let them tidy the game up as much as possible.

This has been my most-anticipated title of the year, and while I'm sad to see it delayed to February, I'm also kinda happy. Sure I want to play it sooner, but knowing that the company is working on two massive co-op titles kinda made it wishful thinking that they would both come out close together. I'm glad that they are taking the time to work on both titles as opposed to skimping on either one or both in order to make a "Fall 2012" deadline.

Wow, so Gearbox has developed two full games while working on A:CM and then helped release Duke Nukem Forever as well. Are they a bit distracted?
