No, the images your watching are not from the next War of the Worlds movie. This is teaser video for Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon which was just recently announced. We've already gotten a look at these creepy arachnids, now I'm wanting a look at the "150 weapons" and "upgradeable armor" that are promised to be in the final product.
Wait, does anyone else think that Insect Armageddon is a very inappropriate subtitle when the only things invading are spider-like?

In Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon players take on the role of the world’s elite soldiers, who will engage in nonstop bug filled arcade action with over 150 weapons and four upgradeable armor sets.
 
The gamefeatures a six-player Survival mode that pits a human squad against a nonstop onslaught of the largest enemies the aliens have to offer. Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon also provides players with an online co-op experience in Campaign mode, which lets up to three players team up online.
 
Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon is currently ESRB-rated “RP” for Rating Pending, and will be available at retail stores this spring.
