It's Aliens versus you, to be precise

Aliens vs Predator PSP screenshots and details tracked down

We mentioned last week an AvP game was in development but publisher Sierra has finally officially announced the game and released a handful of shots.

Created exclusively for PSP and due to appear alongside the Hollywood sequel it's based on this Christmas, this third-person action adventure sees players taking on the role of an elite Predator on a single-handed journey to wipe out the Alien species (and any human silly enough to get in the way) using an arsenal of exotic weaponry and equipment.

At the Predator's disposal via his wrist computer are advanced technologies such as the Pred-tech/thermal vision modes and, naturally, the cloaking ability. Weapon-wise, expect wrist blades, laser trip mines and dual shoulder cannons, to name three.

Interestingly, an honour point system will evaluate your success based on how closely you adhere to the Predator's value system � the higher the honour achievement, the more weapon and armour upgrades available.

And last of the announcements so far is a co-op ad-hoc multiplayer option, which sees Predator chums facing off hordes of advancing Aliens.

We plan to bring you more on this, so stay tuned.
