They've developed many games including Brothers in Arms, Half Life and ported over Halo to PC. This Aliens game will keep "the atmospheric look and feel of the original films while leveraging next-generation technology to create an entirely new interactive Alien experience".

Simon Jeffery, President of Sega, said "Gearbox Software has a storied history of bringing innovative and compelling design to the FPS categor. Combining their design talents with the intense action of the Alien franchise ensures that gamers will have an immersive and action-packed experience." Randy Pitchford, President of Gearbox Software, also said "The Alien series has been a tremendous influence for myself, the people at Gearbox Software and the video games industry in general. The opportunity to work with the amazing people at SEGA and Fox to build a next generation video game in the Alien universe is one of those dream projects that is a perfect fit for our capability and our passion."
