Following a streak of short teaser trailers for Natural Selection 2, indie developer Unknown Worlds has released a more-conventional trailer for the commercial sequel to its outstanding Half-Life RTS-FPS hybrid mod, showing off the beta build.

If you think this all looks a lark, you can pre-order NS2 for $34.95 to get into the ongoing closed beta. You'll receive a code to activate it on Steam. While the beta is updated frequently, there's still no word on when the final version will be released.

I'm just not sure this will be very popular. It looks like it expects a lot of complicated teamwork between the RTS and the FPS parts. If TF2 pubs have shown anything it's that regular people can barely aim let alone work in a team.

It might be great for competitive gaming, but will that be enough to keep it alive for long?

Unknown Worlds has obviously put a lot of work into this, it'll be a shame if the basic concept just doesn't catch on.
