The Swarm, is a 3rd person action adventure title that places you as a survivor of an alien invasion in post-apocalyptic Moscow. Buka Studios and 505 Games have announced a May 2010 release date for the alien shooter game. The game offers some unique features, such as the decision at the start of the game as to whether to absorb alien DNA (which brings ability enhancement at the expense of mutating gradually into a monster) or to remain human. The game offers mini puzzle solving games, and a unique adaptive combat system.

“This is not your standard third-person shooter,” announced Adam Kline, president of 505 Games U.S. ”The game’s adaptive combat allows players to mold their characters, draw them into the alien takeover and force them to make tough decisions typically not found in other shooter games.”

The renditions of an alien ravaged Red Square are meant to be particularly amazing.
