Alien Hominid Invasion and Alien Hominid HD Launch on PlayStation June 10th

Independent game developer and publisher The Behemoth has just announced that the shoot ‘em up side scroller Alien Hominid Invasion and Alien Hominid HD will both be released for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on June 10th. 

Alien Hominid was first uploaded to Newgrounds as a Flash game with a simple premise: Your UFO has crash-landed and the FBI is out to get you. The game was further developed for PlayStation 2, GameCube, Xbox, and GameBoy Advance. 

In Alien Hominid Invasion, the alien now has a health bar instead of the original title’s one-shot kill mechanic. Co-op partners can play across skill gaps by each choosing their own difficult setting from Friendly, Normal or ISANE and there is a wide variety of weapons and boosts available. On PlayStation 5, Alien Hominid Invasion will support 120hz for the first time and players' DualSense controllers will light up with the color of their chosen alien pigment.

The games will launch on the PlayStation store and be available for purchase in a discounted bundle. The pricing in USD will be: 

• Alien Hominid Invasion - $19.99

• Alien Hominid HD - $11.99

• Alien Hominid: The Extra Terrestrial Bundle - $24.99

Alien Hominid HD and Alien Hominid Invasion will be released on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on June 10th. Further updates from The Behemoth include the Castle Crashers Painter Boss Paradise DLC which lands this summer in addition to quality-of-life updates for BattleBlock Theater’s Steam version.
