Alien Breed 3D II: The Killing Grounds (sometimes AB:TKG or TKG) is the fifth game in Team17's Alien Breed franchise, a series of science-fiction-themed shooters largely inspired by the Alien films. It was published in 1996 by Ocean Software.
Team17 had originally intended this to be its final Amiga title. Following the success of Worms, Team17's first multi-format release, the company was looking to get out of the Amiga game market, which had become stagnant over the years. As it transpired, TKG was not Team17's final Amiga title—Worms: The Director's Cut was released the following year. Alien Breed 3D II sold 5,000 copies.
Team17 made the game's source code freely available in March 1997, on the cover CD of Amiga Format magazine issue 95.

Famous quotes containing the words alien, breed, killing and/or grounds:
“I am human and let nothing human be alien to me.”
—Terence (c. 190–159 B.C.)
“The new sound-sphere is global. It ripples at great speed across languages, ideologies, frontiers and races.... The economics of this musical esperanto is staggering. Rock and pop breed concentric worlds of fashion, setting and life-style. Popular music has brought with it sociologies of private and public manner, of group solidarity. The politics of Eden come loud.”
—George Steiner (b. 1929)
“Mortals are easily tempted to pinch the life out of their neighbour’s buzzing glory, and think that such killing is no murder.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“People are reluctant to cite boredom as grounds for divorce.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
