Good of the Aliens to attend their flip

Focus Leisure has introduced that Aliens: Darkish Descent, a brand new online game adaptation of the terrifying sci-fi sequence, will formally launch June 20 on PlayStation, PC, and Xbox platforms.

The brand new recreation, which was first introduced throughout Summer time Recreation Fest 2022, will see a squad of hardened marines taking over an infestation on the darkish planet, Moon Lethe. Aliens: Darkish Descent is a real-time technique title and can job the participant with effectively equipping, maneuvering, and affording their troops with the tactical benefit over hordes of Warriors, Face Huggers, Queens, and, in fact, the soul-sucking capitalism of Weyland-Yutani. XCOM within the Alien universe? Eh, kind of.

You’ll be able to try a brand new trailer under, courtesy of IGN.

Because the trailer spotlights, Darkish Descent is not only one other bug hunt, as gamers can even have to make sure that their squad is well-trained, well-maintained, and afforded a few of the biggest weaponry that researchers can present. The Xenomorphs will virtually at all times have the velocity and quantity benefit, so the marines should play the sphere just a little wiser — establishing traps, pinpointing enemy motion, and heading into battle well-equipped for the nightmare that lies forward.

As everyone knows, the Alien franchise has had an actual rollercoaster journey in relation to video video games, however I feel the visuals listed here are wanting fairly genuine, and it is going to be nice to go into the acid-dripping universe from a perspective that isn’t first-person. There’s no signal of Lt. Vasquez, or Lynn Kurosawa for that matter, however this new take seems promising, and right here’s hoping that it delivers come June.

However apart from all of that, I solely must know one factor… The place they’re.
