The troubled development of Obsidian's latest RPG title based on the Aliens universe has been officially canned by Sega, which was one of three Alien games in development alongside Aliens vs Predator and Colonial Marines. Obsidian's title represented a departure from the first-person nature of the other titles and may have pushed the Aliens universe into a new era which no other developer had explored before.
An Obsidian Community Representative posted: 'Rumours have circled around a bit regarding the fate of the Aliens role-playing game that Obsidian and SEGA had been working on. Unfortunately, it is true that we are no longer working on the game, and we wanted to finally announce that officially to everyone who has been following its development. We're going to keep this forum up for another week for archival purposes and to allow you guys to finish up any open threads, and then we will shut it down since it is no longer a product that is in development.'
