The Alien Hominid Series Is Set to Invade PS5, PS4 in June
Man, remember Alien Hominid? Debuting as a Flash game via Newgrounds in the early noughties, the cartoonish run-and-gunner later came to PS2, and soon it’ll be available to play on PS5 and PS4 with Alien Hominid HD.
It arrives on Sony’s consoles on 10th June 2025, alongside the much more recent sequel, Alien Hominid Invasion.
If you’ve never seen it before, the original is a side-scrolling arcade shooter that’s sort of like a cross between Metal Slug and Cartoon Network. Playing as a little alien, you blast your way through government agents trying to hunt you down.
Alien Hominid Invasion, initially released in 2023, puts a new spin on the action, turning it into more of a roguelike with open stages and various objectives to meet. You can see footage of both titles in the above trailer.
It’s a real hoot to see Alien Hominid once again, and we’re pleased to see both games coming to modern PlayStation platforms very soon.
