Capcom's Lost Planet: Extreme Condition - Image 1It looks like all the rumors circulating around Capcom's special release of Lost Planet: Colonies Edition are true. The newly packaged version of the game will provide the same hardcore action found in the single player campaign coupled with some new game modes and features exclusive to this release.

To wrap everything up in a neat little package, here's a list of all the new content that will be available in for the game:

  • New modes for single-player campaign
    • Score Attack – Each enemy and destructible object has points assigned to them, with the player being awarded different points depending on how they defeat the enemy.
    • Trial Battle Mode – Take on each of the game’s Bosses, one after another
    • Off limit Mode – Go wild with over-the-top super-charged weapons with unlimited ammunition and increased speed of movement
  • • New online modes
    • Akrid Hunter – Get the chance to finally play as an Akrid as your opponents attempt to take you down
    • VS Annihilator – Each team attempts to destroy its opponent’s VS while defending its own
    • Counter Grab – The team with the longest data posts activation time wins
    • Point Snatcher – Take down opponents and collect the most thermal energy points
    • Akrid Egg Battle – Steal Akrid eggs from the opponent’s team and bring them safely back to your own base
    • Egg Bandit – steal your opponents’ Akrid egg, with points awarded for longer capture time
  • 4 new maps for online matches: Crossfire City, Area 921, Lost Arena, Assault Space
  • 5 new playable character models
  • Multiple new weapons for both snow pirates and the robotic VS suits
  • Cross-platform Battles – Xbox 360 owners can join forces or play against PC gamers
  • New perspectives – Switch to first person view or the over-the-shoulder view from Resident Evil 4 for even more intense action
As an added note, Lost Planet: Colonies Edition and the original Lost Planet: Extreme Condition (Xbox 360 and PC) are not compatible with each other. This means single player saves and online rankings cannot be carried over as well as the multiplayer game states.

The special edition release of the game will be available for the PC and Xbox 360 this May 27 and will be priced at US$ 29.99.
