While it may accomplish that feat, it still falls into being a generic third-person shooter with replayability options.Īliens: Fireteam Elite takes places 23 years after the original Alien Trilogy and the Xenomorphs have won. The team at Cold Iron Studios is going a different route with offering a three-player cooperative shooter that takes cues from different franchises to hopefully make the best action-focused Alien game to date. Any Aliens game that includes that name will make fans pause for a moment due to the original disappointment of that title. With the later going with horror, the latest game Aliens: Fireteam Elite goes back towards the action genre and also features the Colonial Marines from the Alien franchise. The two latest Alien video game entries have been the frowned-upon Aliens: Colonial Marines and the much-appreciated Alien Isolation. Much like the movie franchise, the history of Aliens video games have offered both action and horror.
