Interstellar Marines is an upcoming sci-fi first-person shooter by Zero Point Software. The game is being released for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC possibly sometime during 2008. As of December 26, 2007, the project currently doesn't have a publisher nor has much details been revealed since 2006.
Two videos have been released, a teaser and a trailer. The trailer allegedly uses the game's graphics engine. Zero Point confirmed during November 2005 that the title was using Epic Games' Unreal 3 engine and that it has been in development since May of that year. According to the official website and other sources, Interstellar Marines is expected to be developed into a trilogy.
The game is now considered vaporware by many due to not having any updates to the site for a very long time.
Trailer
The trailer featured a short clip of supposed gameplay. The story apparently starts out with four soldiers on a mission, but it goes wrong. Their dropship is blown up, and their commander along with it. After the four soldiers get out of the place on Mars where the explosion occurred, they are recruited to the Interstellar Marines. It is later shown with the four marines spotting a mauled corpse in a mine of some sort, then a human shark hybrid leaps out at the camera.
Other scenes show a shot of the Earth, and a space station hovering above it. There is also a futuristic city with a gray backdrop floating on some kind of water.
Storyline
The game is set in the 22nd century where the Human race travels throughout space, since Earth's population has expanded; and when the Interstellar Marines are first assigned to Mars, a new species is found.
