Sierra annonserte i går en ny expansion pack til det kritikerroste og populære Aliens vs Predator 2. Innefor har vi de første screenshotta og info om utvidelsen!
Det er alltid like digg, som PC gamer, når det kommer en ny utvidelse som forlenger gameplayet i favorittspillet ditt. Nå får altså AvP2 fans en lekker ny utvidelse som definitivt ser ut til å levere varene. Hva med å slakte aliens med en gønner i hver hånd, eller å dra en self-destruct som Predator i Multiplayer? Svært lovende!
Her følger de første screenshotta og et utdrag fra pressemeldingen. Utvidelsespakken slippes i slutten av juli 2002 og den vil få en pris på rundt 200 kr.
Primal Hunt, developed by Third Law Interactive, has the Predalien and Predator stories moving back 500 years prior to the events of Aliens versus Predator 2. Before the humans set up the research facility on Planet LV1201, Predators frequented the planet for the sole purpose to hunt Aliens. On a routine hunt, a Predator stumbles upon ancient Pilot ruins and discovers an Artifact of great power that, as legend has it, controls Aliens and keeps them at bay. That same fateful day an accident causes our hero Predator to become trapped in a stasis field. 500 years later, he is discovered and inadvertently revived by a human named Dunya who is trying to retrieve the Artifact for the mercenaries she works for. As the Predator secretly follows her back to base, he unknowingly allows Aliens access to the human facilities. While the Aliens wreak havoc, a lone Predalien searches out the Artifact to try to destroy it before it becomes active again.
As this terrifying story begins to unfold, players become one of the three heroic and deadly characters that are all fully prepared to do what it takes to take ownership of this powerful and sought after artifact. Choose to play as the Predator that becomes trapped in stasis only to awaken 500 years later, the human corporate mercenary, Dunya, or as the Predalien, a twisted hybrid of Alien and Predator.
