Reminding us that we are our own worst enemies, Maximum Games and Iron Galaxy studios announce Extinction - an action game all about killing giant green men.
"As far back as anyone can remember, humanity has been at war with itself." is how both teams have decided to open up about their new game. Fighting against 150-foot-tall ogres sounds like a treat already - one fans of a certain anime might feel two-fold.
Planned for release early next year across PC and console, Extinction is set to feature fast-paced action across a deep story campaign all about saving the countryside from the wrath of hulking, ugly beasts. Skills can be upgraded in a standard RPG manner to allow for a certain degree of player customizability. On top of main quests, side quests and 'innumerable battle scenarios', 'extinction mode' offers up the wave-based combat exercise that's only become more prevalent in recent years.

We're likely not in the wrong assuming Extinction owes something to KOEI TECMO's own Attack on Titan franchise when the premise revolves around protecting towns against massive, dumb humanoid creatures by travelling up, down and around in an attempt to expose their weak spot.
According to Gematsu, Extinction will be demoed to E3 goers early next week. Maximum Games played a pivotal hand in Styx: Shards of Darkness, The Golf Club and Troll and I.
