How it feels

Cancelled alien-invasion shooter that morphed into ZombiU — chaotic, gory, and darkly comedic in tone.

About

Killer Freaks from Outer Space is a cancelled game project from Ubisoft Montpellier that was changed to better fit the Wii U platform after being shown at E3 201. It was re-revealed as ZombiU at E3 2012. "In 2012, the world is going down the drain, fast... Reams of alien ships have crashed into our planet, and these big wads of diseased, planet-eating, phlegm are spawning hordes of insanely vicious killers! The dangerous and degenerate creatures from outer space we call FREAKS seek to eradicate the human species with single-minded fury. You're a survivor; a winner -- humanity's only freaking hope! Those raunchy aliens missed their chance to put you and your buddies down. And now you're going to make them regret it -- one slimy alien body-part at a time! Immerse yourself in this psychotic, arcade-style, 4-player co-op shooter; and just try and keep your head..."
