Gamers looking forward to the upcoming release of Midway’s upcoming first-person shooter Area 51 should take note that they can get a sneak peek of the game via a playable demo featured on the Mortal Kombat: Deception discs.

Area 51 puts in the role of a specialist Ethan Cole of a special forces hazardous materials unit sent to investigate the cause of a recent viral outbreak on a military outpost. As Cole, players will delve into several massive levels within the confines of Area 51, discovering a deadly mutagenic side effect of the virus that controls the minds of those infected, as well as an ancient alien colony buried beneath the facility. With a multitude of human and alien weapons, players must explore chilling conspiracies such as the extraterrestrial crash at Roswell and the faked lunar landing, in order to solve the enigma of Area 51 before the viral mutagen is released and irrevocably mutates all life on Earth.

Area 51 will offer players a compelling experience, graced by the Hollywood voice talents of David Duchovny as Hazmat Ethan Cole, Powers Boothe as Major Bridges, and shock-rocker Marilyn Manson as Edgar the gray alien.
