New Screenshots for Sanctum 2

Shooting bug aliens, strategically.

Sanctum 2 continues to casually stroll to its release date this summer. To keep us psyched, developer Coffee Stain Studios has released a new batch of screenshots showcasing the game's gorgeous art style along with some exotic locations and a few in-game action shots. It's a bright and shiny futuristic sci-fi world, all splattered with alien bug guts.

For the uninitiated, Sanctum 2 is a follow-up to the 2011 release that neatly combines tower defense and first person shooter elements. Basically, you place turrets to defend the base, then grab a gun and head out to get your hands dirty. It's just as fantastic as it sounds, especially with four player co-op, and the sequel is shaping up to be everything the original was and more.

Look for Sanctum 2 this summer on XBLA, PSN, and PC.
