Publisher Sega and developer Gearbox Software have shooter Aliens: Colonial Marines pushed towards the autumn of this year. After already a few times earlier to be postponed, the game would be in the spring of 2012 on the market.
In a Thursday sent declaration gave ontwikkelstudio Gearbox Software, the creative process is not under pressure to want to convert, only to meet a deadline. According to the studio are creativitieit and innovation are central in the development of Aliens: Colonial Marines, and those words might be poorly reconciled with schedules. For this reason, Aliens: Colonial Marines also moved to the autumn of this year.
Although the declaration of Gearbox easy to defend, does it mean for Aliens: Colonial Marines re-postponement. Already in 2006, announced by Sega and Gearbox that there is a game based on the Alien franchise in the making and in 2008 was given the title of the game handled. In november 2008, it was announced that the project delay had been damaged by layoffs at Gearbox. At the beginning of June 2011, Gearbox announced that Aliens: Colonial Marines at E3, and the beginning of 2012 would come true.
Part of the reason that the game is so long in coming may be that Gearbox Software, the project is not always the highest priority designated. During the development of the game worked Gearbox to several other titles, including Duke Nukem Forever. Currently Gearbox is still dlc for that game, while Borderlands 2 and Brothers in Arms: Furious 4 is still in the making.
