Aliens Fireteam Elite

Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a third-person shooter that uses the license of the iconic Alien. Cold Iron Studios, which was an independent team when work on the game began in 2016, is responsible for the production of the game, but as a result of subsequent turmoil it came under the wing of Disney. Eventually, Focus Home Interactive took care of the developers and their debut title.

The action of Aliens: Fireteam Elite begins 23 years after the events shown in the original Alien trilogy. The crew of USS Endeavor receives a message from the planet Katanga asking for help. They quickly come face to face with the horror that Ellen Ripley experienced over two decades earlier.

In Aliens: Fireteam Elite we go through locations (observed in TPP view) together with two allies and we deal with hordes of dangerous aliens. We start the game by creating our own commando, choosing his appearance and one of five classes: shooter, technician, medic, scout and demolition expert. This decision translates into an arsenal and skills that we will use in the fight against the cosmic plague. The ranks of enemies represent more than 20 types of opponents (including 11 aliens), and each of them is characterized by different behavior and abilities.

Like in Left 4 Dead or Vermintide series, the gameplay doesn't come down only to shooting aliens directed by artificial intelligence. In subsequent missions we also have to perform specific tasks. In addition, along with the progress in the game we develop the combat potential of the hero, strengthening his skills and improving and modifying his equipment.

In Aliens: Fireteam Elite there are four story campaigns. Each of them consists of three missions that can be played with up to two friends over the Internet or alone. In the latter case, the actions of the remaining heroes are directed by the AI. Players can also increase the difficulty level, which translates into more lethal aliens, the inclusion of friendly fire and the limitation of available resources (including ammunition).
