Aliens: Colonial Marines gets its second competitive multiplayer mode in the form of Escape Mode.

Escape Mode, the second multiplayer mode for the upcoming Aliens: Colonial Marine, will pit two teams of four players against one another in a battle of US Colonial Marines versus alien Xenomorphs, SEGA Europe and Gearbox Software announced today.

Players will be under the pressure of a time limit, and must either elimite their targets or reach the safety of escape points on the map.

This is the second multiplayer game mode announced for the title, following the reveal of a competitive death match game mode earlier in the year.

Aliens: Colonial Marines will launch worldwide next year on February 12th, for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC. A version for the Wii U will be released at a later date.
