Getting it for the PS4. Also, a pre-order gets me a pet feline? I'm in.

Those who purchase the $39.99 game on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, or PC before June 20 get the Lethe Recon Pack which comes with black armor for the player’s squad and a unique cat companion. This furry feline is likely a nod to Jones, the cat from Alien.

I'm ready for it. Getting it on PC. I like those squad based games where you are in control of everything.

Found a site that gives many details for those who wish to venture into it some more.

https://exputer.com/guides/aliens-dark-descent-plot/

<ul>
<li>Aliens Dark Descent takes place in 2198 and is set about 20 years after the events in Alien 3.
<li>The plot is focused on an area called the Tantalus Base, and a deadly Xenomorph and alien outbreak has caused a Marine Squad trouble, who are left to figure out how to deal with the outbreak.
<li>The gameplay features that of a top-down squad-based tactical action game that makes the player a Commander, commanding the squad.
<li>A total of 5 classes, such as the Tecker, Sergeant, Recon, Medic, and Gunner, combine to make an undefeatable squad against an opponent. </li></ul>

Welp, this game and Starfield are going to make a liar out of me.
I refused to buy a new console, but I don't know how I stay away with these two titles coming out.

Re: Aliens: Dark Descent - 6/20/23

Here's the IGN Review if anyone is interested. Even after pre-ordering, think I'm going to wait until the game receives those game issue patches. It looks great, and what I wanted, but the review does warn you with those issues.

Whether it sports games, or any games, starting to get disgusted with the way they're released unfinished. I've been good with waiting until game patches are done, but got antsy for a good Alien game.

Re: Aliens: Dark Descent - 6/20/23

For the most part, I am enjoying the game. The characters during cut scenes have this Telltale games look about them, which more resemble a character face model from the PS2-ish era. But being that is a top down game, I guess this is fine because you can't see their face from that angle anyway.

Stealth is definitely the name of the game. Trying to be gun blazing is a no go. Controls take a bit to get use to. But for $40, I think it is a decent game.

Re: Aliens: Dark Descent - 6/20/23

My PS5 copy arrives tomorrow! Looking forward to it. I am sure they will patch some of those quirks the review mentioned.

The game looks great.
