A new trailer gives Aliens: The Dark Descent a release date and shows off some of the upcoming title's real-time strategy gameplay!
Aliens: Dark Descent is the subject of a trailer that reveals new gameplay footage and provides a release date for the game all in the same breath. The Alien franchise has a long history in the world of video games and spans a wide variety of genres. The franchise's most notable game in recent history is Alien: Isolation, regarded as one of the best modern survival horrors. Aliens: Dark Descent will be the first Alien game in the real-time strategy genre since Alien Versus Predator: Extinction released in 2003 to an overall lukewarm reception.
Official Gameplay Trailer:
The first trailer for Aliens: Dark Descent was revealed at the 2022 Summer Games Fest but didn't contain much gameplay footage. The Summer Games Fest trailer mostly consisted of an unnamed marine recounting what he had seen and experienced at the Tantalus Base where the game will presumably take place. The trailer closes with the unnamed marine surrounded by Xenomorphs. Only a few seconds of gameplay were featured at the end of the reveal trailer before "2023" is displayed.
The new gameplay trailer gives prospective players their first look at what to expect from Aliens: Dark Descent. The game is a real-time strategy where the player acts as the Commander for a squad of Colonial Marines tasked with investigating a massive Xenomorph outbreak. The combat system appears to have an intuitive design whereby the player issues commands and the game automatically dispatches the marine best equipped for the job to carry out the work. Players can slow down time during combat to facilitate the issuing of commands, but are unable to completely stop the flow of time.
The gameplay trailer gives the impression that Aliens: Dark Descent will be a fairly hardcore real-time strategy offering. According to the trailer, losing a Colonial Marine is irreversible, but it does appear that the player can encounter survivors hidden around Tantalus Base that could possibly be recruited into the squad. Towards the end of the trailer there is a brief description and footage of how upgrading and customizing the squad will work. Finally, the trailer closes out by revealing the release date for Aliens: Dark Descent as June 20, 2023.
Aliens: Dark Descent is being developed by Tindalos Interactive and will be published by Focus Entertainment. The developer has previously worked on real-time strategy titles set in the Warhammer universe, namely Battlefleet Gothic: Armada and its sequel which were relatively well-received, which should give fans some hope that Aliens: Dark Descent will break the Alien game curse that some believe has plagued the franchise since the infamously disastrous launch of Aliens: Colonial Marines.
Aliens: Dark Descent will release on June 20, 2023 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
