Team17′s John Dennis has chatted a bit about Alien Breed Evolution during the Eurogamer Expo in Leeds, and confirmed three episodes for PS3 and Xbox 360.

“In each episode there’s a prologue level, then there are five single-player levels and they’re really large. Much larger than they should have been,” he said. “There are also two set pieces in each episode. For example there’s one where the ship goes through an asteroid field, there’s debris coming up through the floor and the air’s running out.

“There are also two boss battles in each episode, then on top of that there are three multiplayer levels.”

Dennis revealed that each episode will take “five to eight hours” to complete, and the prologues for each will be free to download.

Still no word on a release or price yet.

Thanks, Eurogamer.

Team 17′s Martyn Brown has told VG247 that the Alien Breed trilogy will be released on PS3, but for now it’s a timed Xbox 360 exclusive.

The first episode will have five levels, each at an hour long. There’s another three hours of co-op, which is separate content.

More on our interview with Martyn is on the way, via a video interview.

Martyn Brown, studio director for Team 17, told Develop attendees that it cost the firm $2.5 million to create the Alien Breed trilogy for Xbox Live Arcade.

“It makes it one of the most expensive digital titles to-date,” he told the crowd while  stating that Team 17 employed around 30 people for 14-15 months to create the title.

Alien Breed is to be released in three parts starting in October and is expected to take a total of 15 hours to finish.
