The team from Black Forest Games (Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams, Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back) will be responsible for its creation. Originally the Destroy All Humans! series was developed by the currently non-existent Pandemic studio (Battlezone II: Combat Commander, Dark Reign 2, original Star Wars: Battlefront, The Saboteur) and saw a total of four installments, the last of which was released in 2008. In all installments/parts we controlled an alien named Crypto who came to Earth in search of lost DNA.
When playing Destroy All Humans! we brought chaos to 1950s and 1960s America, destroying everything that stood in our way, whether it was unexpected civilians, military or Soviet agents. The series was strongly inspired by classic science-fiction cinema and pulp stories about alien invasions. It also contains numerous references to pop culture, both in its contemporary edition and in the one from several decades ago. Until 2012, the rights to the Destroy All Humans! franchise belonged to THQ, which after its bankruptcy put them up for sale A year later Nordic Games became their owner and changed its name to THQ Nordic. Under the supervision of the new publisher, the first and second installments of the series were reissued in 2016 on PlayStation 4.
