Aliens Infestation Spotted on ACB Website

2011/05/25

The mystery of that rumored Aliens title SEGA maybe working on along with The Creative Assembly might have just been unraveled slightly thanks to a hawk-eyed NeoGaf user. We recently spotted the report over at VG24/7 and wanted to bring it to you that the game COULD be titled “Aliens Infestation”. This title was recently registered on the dreaded Australian Classification Board website, and mentions that it is being published by SEGA and developed by WayForward. This is not entirely concrete though, as WayForward is best known for their Nintendo DS titles – not console and PC stuff.

So… COULD this be a Nintendo DS port of the TCA/SEGA title or an entirely different game? Time will tell as we get ever-closer to E3, so stay-tuned.

Now, we have 2 million registrations in Russia alone, not to mention the Western audience and its immense growth,” said Wargaming.net CEO Victor Kislyi. “With the tremendous number we’ve reached in Russia as well as the dynamics of community growth in Europe and North America, we are looking forward to the many more milestones to come.”
