With just under a month left until Focus Entertainment and Tindalos Interactive’s Aliens: Dark Descent is due to release, a new gameplay overview trailer has just been released! The new narrated trailer gives us a nice detailed look at Aliens: Dark Descent’s gameplay and management systems, as well as plenty of new cut scene footage.
We’re happy to reveal a new Gameplay Overview Trailer which offers you a deeper dive into Aliens: Dark Descent. The video’s in-depth footage and commentary showcases the narrative, protagonists, and gameplay mechanics of the upcoming strategic real-time squad-based tactical action game set in the iconic Alien universe.
Alien: Dark Descent was recently shown off at PAX East and made a very good impression with the journalists who played it. The game is due for release on the 20th of June and is available for pre-order on Focus Entertainment’s website. Though none of the announcements have been highlighting it, early pre-order also comes with Lethe Recon Pack.

Here's hoping we get some good dlc in the form of Sulaco Marines appearance and customisation, I need Drake and Vasquez in this, maybe even give frost a proper tribute
It's great to finally get a little preview of the between missions base and customisation stuff, along with the multiple locations we'll get to go to. I didn't realise they'd be spread out cross the plant as it looks like they're going to be! And APCs! Also really cool!
And confirmation that the one xeno is a Praetorian too. I'm definitely digging the more "subtle" design they're going with here. The hype is definitely building up even more!
We've even got APCs! I want to say finally, but I know we had them in Evolution and Infestation, but with the tank as well (was that the one from the RPG?!) we might get to actually use vehicles more in Dark Descent! I heard mention of Trimonite too. I think I saw some Engineer ruins in there too.
It looks like there's going to be some depth to the game too. Man, I really can't wait to dig into this.
Anyone notice the big giant head scene?
The only faults for me are that the weird Drone sidestep phasing animation looks wrong, and that the Phase Plasma Pulse Rifle's purple hue shot doesn't feel impactful for now.
I'm so excited to try this game out!
(Nothing can top Isolation in my opinion, though...)
