Alien Breed is returning as Alien Breed Impact and has released a set of screenshots from the new game. Launched back in 1991 on the Amiga and then later on MS-DOS PCs, the game was a big success for the company spawning several sequels. Alien Breed took inspiration from Ridley Scott’s Alien and saw gamers take on the role of a lone marine, fighting against the alien horde in 2D top-down action.

The Worms maker has promised the new game will be a “drop-dead gorgeous retro-modern remake” and will be powered by the Unreal3 engine. There will be a single-player and co-op modes, though it’s not clear whether the cooperative play will be local or online.
