E311 Media | Killer Freaks from Outer Space Exclusive for Wii U on Nintendo gaming news, videos and discussion

During E3 today Ubisoft confirmed a new work-in-progress first person shooter dubbed Killer Freaks From Outer Space.

The year is 2012 and Earth has reached breaking point. A horde of nasty, vile aliens known as "FREAKS" have touched down on our once peaceful planet in a bid to destroy the human race. Owch. You play one of Earth's survivors, who equipped with an arsenal of arcade-styled weapons "make them regret it -- one slimy alien body-part at a time!"

Killer Freaks is described as intense four player arcade shooter with various multiplayer elements, including support for the new Wii U controller.

For control, players can opt to use the Wii U controller's touch screen to aim, looking around physically, and one of the analogue sticks for movement. In multiplayer, one player uses a Wii Remote/nunchuck to control the action as a regular first person shooter, with the other working in counter-operative to control the aiens using the Wii U pad.

Looks like a great B-Movie action-horror-comedy game. Nice to see that now we have moved to HD Ubi are giving us blood, even if it is the blood of hairless Raving Rabbids!

Add me on anything. I'm always looking for new friends/opponents/town visitors/chances to appear more popular than I actually am.

So that's what becomes of the Rabbids if you don't feed them at night...scary.Smilie

Three important rules for Rabbid care:
1) Never expose the Rabbid to bright lights
2) Never get a Rabbid wet
3) Never feed a Rabbid after midnight

Well, look at that! I enjoyed House of the Dead Overkill and this game is something that seems to have a similar "feel".
