News: Repel the alien invasion in this overhead shooter.

Square Enix has announced they will be bringing 0 Day Attack on Earth to the Xbox Live Arcade this week on Wednesday, December 23. For those who love the twin stick overhead shooter genre, this Gulti-developed game will be like an early Christmas present.

The game will be available to download for 1200 Microsoft Points ($15) and it will strap gamers into the cockpit of a powerful fighter jet as they fight back against an alien invasion of the giant brain kind...

"" The Fight to Protect Earth Begins. High-tech Tokyo is in rubble. The once vibrant New York is ground to a halt. And the City of Light, Paris, is enveloped by darkness and despair.

Hordes of humongous life forms have suddenly and brutally converged on the world's metropolitan areas, overwhelming the defenseless Earth and paralyzing humanity with unprecedented fear. Those that remain after the initial assault, which would later be known as the 0 Day Attack On Earth, take to the skies in a seven day battle fighting for the survival of all humanity. ""

In addition to the main game, 0 Day Attack On Earth will include four-player online play and an eight-player Vs mode.

The first screenshots depicting the evil alien brains and their invasion of Earth can be found right here.

We'll have more soon.
