Platforms: Xbox Series S / X, Xbox One, PS5, PS4, PC Release Date: August 24th

Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a survival shooter set 23 years after the original Alien film trilogy, where you play a colonial Marine in the outer colonies battling to make your way through a xenomorphic hive.

You can team up with two friends or two AI teammates and face wave after wave of deadly xenomorphs as one of five different character classes. There is a lot of variety of enemies here too – there are 11 different types of xenomorphs, and as you progress through the game, each new variety you encounter has different abilities and presents a unique challenge to take down.

FTW played a preview build of Fireteam Elite, and while Aliens fans will enjoy it alone, the game is best played with friends. The game adds replayability in the form of challenge cards, which act as difficulty modifiers that can make missions much more difficult or require specific play styles.
