Come Face To Face With The Xenomorphs This August In The Newly Titled ALIENS: FIRETEAM ELITE

A bomb was dropped yesterday. Not just the fact that the new game, Aliens: Fireteam had been renamed to Aliens: Fireteam Elite, but we also got the release date! The release date was revealed for August 24th and there’s even a nice new pre-order trailer that went live alongside the news!

The trailer shows off more gameplay as well as the things that make up some of its big features. We get a glimpse of character customization options, although mostly cosmetic but still really cool to see implemented. We also get to see some extremely intriguing locations as well as different kinds of Xenomorphs and their special abilities.
