Tindalos Interactive and Focus Entertainment unveiled their latest upcoming horror game Alien: Dark Descent at the Summer Game Fest<\/a><\/strong> yesterday.<\/p>\n

The game is set to release sometime in 2023 and will launch on PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X\/S, and PC via Steam.<\/p>\n

Unlike the publisher\u2019s previous title, Aliens: Fireteam Elite<\/em>, we will not be playing this one from the first-person perspective.<\/p>\n

Instead, the game will be isometric and have players control a full squad of marines \u2014 making this a spiritual successor to Valve’s criminally underplayed Alien Swarm<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Aliens: Dark Descent<\/em> is a squad-based, single-player horror action game that will task players with leading a squad of soldiers to stop a new and terrifying kind of Xenomorph outbreak on Moon Lethe.<\/p>\n

The game will feature an RPG character progression, and there are five distinct marine classes with “dozens of specialisations, unique abilities, and weapons”.<\/p>\n

While the horrors of Aliens: Dark Descent<\/em> will feature the franchise\u2019s iconic Xenomorphs, players will also have to face a host of horrifying creatures such as the Facehuggers, Praetorians, Alien Queens, and rogue human commandos.<\/p>\n

Players are warned to tread carefully as death is permanent, and your foes will adapt their tactics to your actions while hunting you down.<\/p>\n
