Upcoming top-down Alien co-op title Alien Breed Evolution has been confirmed to be released episodically in three installments, instead of being the first of a separate trilogy as previously believed. It's said that each of these three episodes will take players 5-8 hours to complete, and will be available for download "December-ish." If you're unsure about paying for 3 separate installments of the game, don't fret - the prologue will be available for download and preview for free.
The original Alien Breed came out 16 years ago, with the remake coming sometime in the near future. A lot has changed in technology and games since 1993 - an era when the 386 was considered a powerful computer. Team 17 has put out a video for Alien Breed Evolution titled "Then and Now" and it shows just how far the Xbox 360 timed exclusive has come.
Wait, what's that you say? A timed exlusive? Yes according to Team 17 studio director Martyn Brown, thanks to a good relationship with Microsoft (and some free advertising) - Alien Breed Evolution will launch on the Xbox Live Arcade with a PlayStation Network version coming sometime later.
Remakes are the new wave of arcade gaming it would seem. Now, Alien Breed Evolution is next in line with an Unreal engine makeover. We've passively kept a hopeful eye on this title, waiting for more details to sink some slimy alien-teeth into.
