SEGA has denied speculation that Aliens: Colonial Marines has been cancelled on Wii U.

A rumor surfaced last night that Aliens had been “postponed indefinitely” on Nintendo’s console. But a SEGA UK representative says this isn’t so:

“It’s not true. We haven’t announced the release date for it yet but that’s it.”

Aliens: Colonial Marines remains on track for a release before the end of March on Wii U.

Video: Aliens: Colonial Marines’ downgrade from 2012 demo

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Podcast Stories, Videos, Wii U | 0 comments

This is rather concerning. SEGA and Gearbox showed a demo of Aliens: Colonial Marines last year, but the final product looks quite different… in a bad way. The video’s title appropriately asks: “What the hell happened to Aliens: Colonial Marines?”
