Aliens: Colonial Marines story trailer checks those corners

The newest look at Sega and Gearbox’ direct (and in canon!) sequel to the second Aliens film reveals more about the game’s back story- a tale that’s looking more in-depth than any game based on the franchise has featured before.

There’s a lot to like in that video if you’re an Aliens fan. Hicks’ cameo aside, we had a synth sighting, plenty of marine blasting xeno action, and a brief look at something involving the extraction of a human target…

Okay Gearbox, you’ve got my attention.

Aliens: Colonial Marines deploys onto the Xbox 360, PS3, PC, on February 12th. No firm word yet on when Wii U players can expect their version of the shooter (complete with GamePad displayed motion tracker), but it should be along this coming year.
