Gearbox are well known in the PC FPS world, with Half-Life: Opposing Force, Counterstrike, Halo and Brothers in Arms amongst their porfolio. The title will be developed for all next-gen systems.

"The Alien series has been a tremendous influence for myself, the people at Gearbox Software and the video games industry in general," said Randy Pitchford, President of Gearbox Software. "The opportunity to work with the amazing people at SEGA and Fox to build a next generation video game in the Alien universe is one of those dream projects that is a perfect fit for our capability and our passion."
