Publisher confirms Rebellion as developer behind Aliens vs Predator...

SEGA Europe has today confirmed that UK developer, Rebellion, is returning to work on a new Aliens vs Predator title, nearly fifteen years after it first produced a game based on the two 20th Century Fox icons.

The Oxford company had previously been responsible for the series defining Alien vs. Predator on Atari’s Jaguar in 1995, as well as the critically acclaimed PC title Aliens versus Predator five years later.  However, the studio’s most recent bite at the AvP apple, Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem on PSP,  left much to be desired.

News of the third Aliens game from SEGA comes on the same day the publisher revealed further delays to Obsidian's and Gearbox's respective titles.

“The innovative new AvP game presents an exciting opportunity for us,” says CEO of SEGA West, Naoya Tsurumi, “It represents a fantastic addition to our growing Aliens franchise and the reinvention of one of gaming’s most cherished iconic titles. By adjusting the release of our other Aliens titles to accommodate it, SEGA will ensure that every title lives up to the high expectations of Aliens and AvP fans.”

“SEGA continues to create masterful games based on our Aliens franchise and this new addition is sure to continue their successful track record,” said Gary Rosenfeld, Senior Vice President, New Media for Fox L&M.

No further details on Aliens vs. Predator have been revealed, though it will be the first of the three games to see a release, due sometime in 2010.

Sure, there are a lot of people playing MW2, but there still plenty of gamers to go around. If AvP's multiplayer is good enough and the game sells enough copies, then there'll be people playing online for to keep the servers busy. After all, the multiplayer population of the original AvP was pretty resilient.

Mw2's population will drive this game to a botemless pit.The issue is driving my friends and me crazy.

It should do better than Turok in the multiplayer stakes I reckon. AvP games have a long running fan-base for their multiplayer thanks to the earlier titles and there seem to be some interesting modes and features for each character class in the new game. It'll still come nowhere near MW2's multiplayer population though. Nothing will for a while yet...

im going to pre-order this game but freeradical is right it'll probably have the same online population as xbox360's latest Turok which as well in my opinion was awesome.this game will be great.

We'll see, but it's going to take something monumental to rival MW2's online population.
