The latest PC Zone UK magazine has a new revelation in store. They are announcing Universe at War: Earth Assault, a sci-fi RTS from Petroglyph Studios (consisting of several ex-Westwood employees and responsible for Star Wars: Empire at War).

This PFF-forum thread has some very legal (ahem) scans on display, with some blurred screenshots and a description of the game.

The year is 2012 and guess what, Earth gets invaded by aliens who want to eat everything that's on the planet. What a shocker indeed. Now, the game does seem to feature more than just that, since the creators emphasize how players can adapt their units on the fly. Customizing your arsenal rapidly is the key feature here and how Petroglyph describes it reminds a little bit of how things were done in Warzone 2100.

More to be revealed later without a doubt.
