AvP Demo On The Way [Updated #3]

Posted 202 Comments

We’ve known for some time now that Sega would be releasing a demo for the upcoming game. In a recent interview with GameTrailers, Rebellion producer, Tim Jones, confirmed that the demo may also include multiplayer:

“There will be a demo coming very soon, which hopefully you will be able to enjoy online.”

While we still have no set date for the demo release, it is on the way and it may feature the multiplayer mode.

Update: AvPGalaxy can reveal the demo will be released next week! Stay tuned for a full announcement from Sega. Thanks to ikarop for the news.
Update 01/02/10: It was an open secret, but now the date for the upcoming AvP demo has finally been unveiled. Xbox Live Spotlight channel featured an advertisement claiming the date for the AvP demo. It seems like the ad is no longer available online but we can confirm that it’s true. The demo will be released this week, Thursday Feb 4th as featured on the channel. We can also reveal that the demo will feature the multiplayer part of the game and will be available on PSN and Steam on the same date.
Update 03/02/10: The advert is back on the X-Box Live Spotlight channel. Check out this picture of it. Thanks to RidgeTop for the picture.

    I thought the demo was a blast, the Alien is my personal favorite just because I got used to the wall-walk really quickly and can really zoom around the map at terrific speeds dodging attacks and catching prey unawares. The predator controls are a little more complicated, but once you get the focus jump mechanic down it gets easier. Marine is frustratingly difficult to play because any hit sends you reeling and helpless to resist a grab and execute move. Even worse, you tend to spawn in the immediate proximity of opponents who then quickly dispatch you before you can even get your bearings.
    All around I'm not disappointed at all, I think the attack / counter mechanics are really novel additions to the franchise. I can't wait for the full game so I can hone my skills better in single player before taking it back to the arena.

    If anyone is having a problem with the game being unavailable on steam and you are running vista like i am and nothing works.. Try this as it work for me after reinstalling Physx, updated video, Re installed steam and tried deleting conf file. restarted app and pc, installed all windows fixes which were already installed. etc..
    Uninstall all .net frameswork SP under the security,windows update. Then go to steam directory, common, avp folder then to VS folder and install pack in there then restart pc and open game and should work. You can then reinstall updates if you like.. :) GIVE IT A TRY!

    for 360, you have to go on the "browse demo's" and select the letter "A", after that you have to select "Aliens vs Predator" and select "Get Demo"

    Ok so if demo will feature single player and multi that's great and awesome, altough if it does then i think the fact 2nd update says "The demo will feature the multiplayer part of the game" is kinda confusing and certainly sounds more like it will be MP only.
