The Behemoth have revealed their first gameplay trailer for Alien Hominid Invasion, and confirmed the game’s platforms.
Up to four players can team-up and invade randomly generated neighborhoods. Use weapons and power ups, level up, mutate to gain abilities such as super speed or healing, and find strange new ways to vault around and blow up government Agents.
Along with flipping and diving, players can also grab enemies and throw them around- further adding to the chaos. The game will also feature online and local co-op, fully animated cutscenes, and three difficulty levels (“Friendly, Normal, and INSANE”)
