The official
UFO Aftershock website is now live, offering some renders, the E3 2004 trailer (already
added in our download area), and info about this mixture of squad based tactical action and global strategy in the works at
Altar Interactive. The sequel to
UFO: Aftermath "follows directly from one of the endings of the first title, where the player agrees to hand over the Earth to the Alien scientists, who are trying to change the planet into a giant living organism. The Council of Earth and their followers take refuge on an orbiting satellite prepared for them by the aliens, but not all the survivors of the original invasion where re-located". The game is scheduled for a third quarter 2005 release.
