'''''Attack of the Killer Rabbids From Outer Space''''' is the name of a cancelled ''[[Rabbids (series)|Rabbids]]'' game.

==Development==

The development of the game started in 2010. [[Ubisoft|Ubisoft Montpellier]], who also worked on several ''[[Rayman (series)|Rayman]]'' and ''[[Rabbids (series)|Rabbids]]'' games, was in charge of the project. It was meant to be a first-person shooter and survival horror game, and the release was planned for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

Although the game was cancelled, a substantial amount of concept art was created. It depicts a post-apocalyptic [[Earth]] under attack by extra-terrestrial monsters related to the [[Rabbid]]s, although they did not originate from the [[Glade of Dreams]]. Their appearance is also significantly more gruesome, with yellow eyes (or no eyes at all), sharp teeth, clawed fingers and a tail like that of a rat.

Killer [[Rabbid]]s mastered an advanced technology, including rayguns, flying saucers and war machines. Unlike their [[Rabbid|regular counterparts]], their violence was not mitigated by the cartoonish tone of the game and they would not hesitate to savagely kill [[human]]s.

In addition to the common alien [[Rabbid]]s, the game featured other types of enemies, such as a larger [[Rabbid]] equipped with a whip, or gigantic [[Rabbid]]s.

The player would control a [[human]] fighting killer [[Rabbid]]s with various weapons, whether realistic (revolver, shotgun) or fantasist (electric gun, freeze gun). The presence of several [[human]]s in the concept art, from two to four, suggests that the game may have featured a multiplayer mode.

However, the developers eventually rejected the idea of monstrous [[Rabbid]]s, fearing it would harm their public image, and replaced them with different aliens, renaming the game ''Attack of the Killer Freaks From Outer Space''. The new enemies, called Freaks, were smaller than alien [[Rabbid]]s, with a reptilian—and less cartoony—appearance. The game would take place in a devastated London, with a confirmed multiplayer mode, a "run and gun" gameplay and a scoring system. The release was planned for the Wii U, as a launch title.

The developers however still weren't satisfied, as the Freaks' small size forced the player to constantly watch the ground. Moreover, the game made little use of the Wii U's GamePad. Eventually, the alien attack was replaced with a zombie outbreak, and the game became ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZombiU ZombiU]'', released in November 2012. It is also a first-person shooter and survival horror game, takes place in a post-apocalyptic London, but the final gameplay makes ample use of the Wii U's GamePad.
