Originally scheduled to arrive in Sept. 2011, Gearbox has revealed a slight delay in launch, as Aliens: Infestation is now scheduled for Oct. 11, 2011 (Sept. 30 in Europe).

Players will be able to recruit and play as 19 different marines, each with their own unique dialogue, and explore iconic environments including the Sulaco, the Derelict ship, and LV-426.

Aliens: Infestation will pit players against the overwhelming Xenomorph hive using a vast selection of iconic weapons and tools from the series. Featuring character designs by popular comic artist Chris Bachalo and equipped with an upgrade and collectibles system, Aliens: Infestation will allow players to explore large-scale versions of some of the most fan-beloved environments of the iconic films.
