It's been more than three years since the last time a video game based on the "Alien" film franchise was released but it looks like a new one is on its way. FoxNext, a division of 21st Century Fox, has acquired Cold Iron Studios to develop a new "Alien" game. "Cold Iron Studios has amazing design, craftsmanship and development talent that we are excited to welcome at FoxNext Games as we pursue our goal to build a multi-platform, multi-genre portfolio of great games," president of studios at FoxNext Games Aaron Loeb said in the press release, as per Dual Shockers. "I am a personal fan of Cold Iron's previous work and all of us at FoxNext Games are thrilled to be working with them as they create an action-packed persistent world, steeped in the mysteries of this beloved'Alien' universe." FoxNext said that its acquisition of Cold Iron Studios represents its commitment to deliver new AAA games moving forward.
