It's time to stand your ground and survive against Xenomorphs with Aliens: Dark Descent, now officially released worldwide. In the game, players take on the role of a commander leading a team of hardened Colonial Marines trying to stop the threat being faced by Planet Lethe. This squad-based and single-player action game is available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
Aliens: Dark Descent has players lead the team as one unit through intuitive controls on keyboard and mouse and controllers. The team will face off against different enemies like the iconic Xenomorphs and rogue operatives from the Weyland-Yutani Corporation. There are also different horrifying creatures introduced to the Alien universe.
The game offers players access to large open levels where they can destroy enemies using their squad.
