THQ Nordic’s Destroy All Humans! remake is currently 50% off on Steam, which, in itself, is only mildly worthy of note. However, a newly released trailer promoting the mid-week discount is considerably more interesting, seemingly teasing the imminent arrival – or at least imminent announcement – of a remaster for Destroy All Humans! 2.
Shift your attention toward the trailer below and skip to the 1 minute 15 mark, and you’ll see a peculiar thing. As the promo winds down, the camera suddenly lurches to the right, revealing that a second Crypto’s been loitering nearby all along. “Are you done yet, 137?”, the clone asks, before the original replies, “Wait your turn, little tadpole, I’m only getting started”.
The most notable thing about this whole exchange, however, isn’t the dialogue, but the outfit Crypto #2 is wearing – it’s the same one Crypto (or more accurately, his clone, Cryptosporidium-138) wore in Pandemic Studios’ 2006 sequel Destroy All Humans! 2.
