Survios Studios is creating a new game, possibly calledAliens, set in the iconic science fiction universe that so many fans know and love. The title will be in collaboration with 20th Century Games, though there aren’t many details for players at this time. The newAlienstitle is a horror game, perhaps similar toAlien: Isolation, and will provide players with a single-player gaming experience.
There have been multipleAliengames released in recent years that have been met with mixed responses.Alien: IsolationandAliens: Fireteam Elite, for example, are two that have worked to expand the sci-fi universe ofAlienwith interesting stories but which lacked the gameplay elements that players were hoping for. Now, with the upcomingAliensgame, players should be optimistic about receiving an immersive and unique title.

The Aliens game is going to feature many exciting gameplay elements. The title will be released for consoles, PCs, and asa virtual reality game. Developed using Unreal Engine 5, the title is likely to include showstopping graphics. While the plot of the game is entirely unknown, Survios has stated that it will be a single-player adventure set afterAlienbut before the sequel film. It will follow a veteran of the military forces who is faced with a desire to destroy the aliens, or Xenomorphs. Gamers will likely be able to customize their character to some extent.
TheAliensgameis still in development and will not be coming out any time in the near future. There are, however, a few more things about the title that viewers can learn from Survios. The game will be more than just horror; there will be a substantial action element as well, presumably involving players anddifferent types of Xenomorphs. And, based on the promotional images from Survios, players can assume that the title will take place aboard ships and outposts like the ones that are seen in the James Cameron film. Of course, details of in-game maps won’t be confirmed until Survios releases more information about its developing title.
The storywill be something completely new, and will hopefully be extremely effective in virtual reality. It will also have to fixthe mistakes ofAliens: Fireteam Eliteand restore players' faith in theAliengaming franchise. While that won’t be easy, if Survios and 20th Century Fox can pull it off, the new title might be a great way for gamers to experience an iconic universe. Unfortunately, fans will need to wait patiently until the title is released.
Aliensis currently in development.
