We've been following the development of Perimeter 2 for some time now and this week we learned that Strategy First has landed the US publishing rights to the sci-fi RTS sequel. The game will be released on January 10 by the publisher and will be priced at $29.99 in both boxed and download versions.

Developed once again by KDV Games, Perimeter 2 continues the wild gameplay element of units that morph and even merge to become new larger units along with deformation of the game's level terrain. New RPG-lite elements have also been added to the sequel. It should be interesting to see if Perimeter 2 gets more of a mainstream audience than the original who perhaps wasn't used to the first game's unique features.

The faction called Harckback Technologies shows off its units and terraforming capabilities in the latest Perimeter 2 trailer. The upcoming real-time strategy game will pit multiple factions against each other in an attempt to control "New Earth." All parties will be armed with powerful landscape deformation technology.

A new trailer for developer 1C Company's Perimeter II: New Earth. Due out later this year, the RTS sequel features several new units and buildings for players to master. The trailer, which we offer as a high definition download, showcases several of these new units and structures that will be placed under your competent command later this year.

One of the most unusual RTS games ever released was K-D Labs' Perimeter. The sci-fi themed game features such features as deformation of the game's level terrain and the ability for small units to literally merge together to form a new and larger unit. Now K-D Labs has officially announced plans for a full sequel, called Perimeter 2: New Earth.

Due for release sometime this fall, the developer has already launched its official web site with lots of info, screenshots and a trailer for the game (while the Flash based trailer works there's some kind of bug in the downloadable version of the trailer). The merging of units is back as a feature as is the weird art design, some new RPG-lite elements and more. There's no word yet on who will be publishing the sequel (Codemasters handled the duties for the original game).
