Leaked over the weekend and made official today, Infinity Ward has built a new Extinction four-player cooperative mode into Call of Duty: Ghosts that stars angry and agile aliens with no intention of phoning home.
As you will see in the reveal trailer below, a squad of four soldiers are up against a massive alien outbreak in a small town. The aliens have pods, can run fast on all four legs, and climb vertically in ways humans cannot. James Cameron would flash a thumbs up sign of approval.
After the debacle that was Sega’s Aliens: Colonial Marines, perhaps Extinction will help pick up the slack and deliver an alien encounter worth revisting. If not, there’s always another zombie outbreak in Treyarch’s next Call of Duty game.
Here’s the official Extinction synopsis:
Call of Duty: Ghosts introduces Extinction – an all-new 1-4 player cooperative game mode featuring a unique blend of fast-paced survival action, FPS base defense, scavenging and class leveling.
Call of Duty: Ghosts comes to Xbox 360, PS3, Wii U and PC on November 5, followed by PS4 on November 15 and Xbox One on November 22.
