Aliens: Dark Descent puts players in charge of a squad of colonial marines as they explore the planet of Lethe in the hunt for supplies and Xenomorph activities under the stresses the Cerberus Protocol preventing ships from leaving the planet.
Among the enemies players will fight in Aliens: Dark Descent are the iconic Xenomorphs themselves, as well as rogue operatives from ultra-capitalistic megacorp Weyland-Yutani, as well as new creatures making their debut in the Alien setting.
Gameplay revolves around players carefully sweeping large levels as they look for supplies and clues, while at the same time trying to manage their dwindling ammunition as they try and fight off hordes of Xenomorphs. Stealth is an important aspect of the gameplay as well, forcing players to hide out from horde attacks.
Aliens: Dark Descent features a story-focused campaign that will see players returning to the same map for multiple objectives. For more details, here’s everything you need to know about the game.
