Arriving on Steam early next week, Alien Swarm is described as a "epic bug hunt" which will send players on a four player co-op mission to eradicate the alien foe. For those that recognise the name, the title is a Source remake of the classic Unreal Tournament 2004 total conversion modification.
"Two years ago Valve hired the talented team behind the popular top down co-op mod Alien Swarm. Since then they have been busy working on the Left 4 Dead Series, and now Portal 2. However, we never forgot about Alien Swarm and the team has spent a lot of time bringing the game to Source in between their contributions to the other Valve projects."
Like other Valve titles, the game will also boast full Steamworks integration including achievements, Steam Cloud, matchmaking, stat tracking and anti-cheat protection.
Alien Swarm will be available for Australian gamers through Steam from 20 July.
