With the new version of Aliens vs. Predator set for release next month, Rebellion is taking the opportunity to take a digital stroll through the series’ past: For a scant $4.99, you can now purchase the original 1999 version of Aliens vs. Predator on Steam.
The game has been updated to play on modern rigs with DirectX 9.0c, and features all of the single player content of the 2000 Aliens vs. Predator Gold Edition version of the game. Unfortunately there is no multiplayer for now, although in talking about the rerelease with IGN earlier this week, Rebellion CEO Jason Kingsley said, “We will in due course fix up the multiplayer — and we’ll make sure it’s a free download.”
Kingsley also admitted that “it shows its age a little bit, but it is frightening and it is difficult.” And hey, it’s five bucks, which is a small price to pay to see what the remake has to live up to.
