Command a squad of hardened Colonial Marines to stop a terrifying Xenomorph outbreak on Moon Lethe in Aliens: Dark Descent. Lead your soldiers in real-time combat against iconic Xenomorphs, rogue operatives from the insatiable Weyland-Yutani Corporation, and a slew of new and horrifying Alien creatures.

You are in command. They serve as your weapon.

Infiltrate large open levels and annihilate enemies with your squad, strategically and intuitively dispatching orders at the touch of a button. Because death is permanent, your enemies will adapt their tactics to your actions while hunting you down. In a persistent world where your actions affect levels indefinitely, forge unique paths for survival by discovering shortcuts, creating safe zones, and installing motion trackers.

Customize your squad by choosing from a variety of classes. For high-stakes missions in treacherous terrain, level up and specialize your soldiers with unique abilities and an arsenal of weapons, armor, and perks. Build your base to research new technology and improve your squad even more.

To outwit the deadliest creature mankind has ever faced, you must manage your resources wisely and take calculated risks. Can you and your team put an end to the outbreak in time?
