I have found myself liking the game more and more. Thankfully, as it appears you can co-op the gam to 3 people, which is awesome. I have already co-oped 3 persons and it was an awesome experience... The levels knida get repetitive, but thankfully you get new guns, attachments, and other items to make you and your team into bad ass alien killers! Graphics: Well done and they are reminiscent of the movie Prometheus, which is fitting. I had to turned down some settings in the game as they down on my standard PC. Music and sound were bot good as it is eerie. The aliens sound excellent and from the movie. Revelation? I like ti a lot, I hope Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 comes out soon. I want to do more alien killing. Recommended!

Coming from finishing both Isolation and Colonial Marines, It was a bit of adjustment due to the third person aspect. But overall I enjoyed my experience playing fireteam elite. I do have to say I didn't get to play with anyone else because I have no friends and I didn't have any luck matching with any other players. But thank god the AI bots are solid enough to play by yourself. That said, you get different classes which of course I went gunner. My favourite type of play style, Running and shooting. Finished this quite quickly which there being four main arcs with three chapters each in them and taking around 20-40 minutes each. If you can get a group together to play this, I highly suggest you do so and try the hard setting because my lord its hard.

It's fun when playing in a group. Surprisingly, in 2026, I can still get a rando group going, maybe 60%-70% of the time. That's not bad for an old game!

This game is only really worth getting on very heavy discount for Aliens fans, but definitely not worth the full asking price. This is a competent team based cover shooter but it unfortunately has a lot holding it back from actually being anything but just OK for these main reasons : 1) Disney Aliens its all very PG-13 : There's no gore, no chestbursting, no facehugging, no secondary jaw skull punching, no acid burning or naughty alien snake willy oral intercourse, or even just a little barbed tail penetration. Its very tame and safe and the Aliens just swipe at you like angry cats, jump on you like a horny girlfriend or pick you up and hold you in the air like a toddler with a poopy nappy. When you are downed you just crawl around waiting to be revived whilst the Aliens run around ignoring you, its just very bland and safe and not the vibe you expect at all when confronted with the Xenomorphs from the movies. 2) Its very repetitive There are just 12 missions in the base game with a play time of roughly 30 mins each, lets be generous and say 45 mins to include the time spent waiting in lobby for two other people to play with. That's about 9 hours of playtime to pretty much see everything the game has to offer content wise, this is just not enough when all you have left is repeating the same missions again and again just on harder difficulties. 3) Cosmetic rewards. There is far too much focus on rewarding continued play with cosmetics for playing Fortnite dress up, if the game had just an extra 12 missions instead of all this character customisation nonsense i think the game would of been much better. I personally think this is a huge waste of time and just silly as the game is so dark most of the time nobody can see your new hat or that you have a cool little burning skull decal on your pink zebra stripped gun. 4) Game over Man Overall this is just disappointingly generically Aliens, or Vanilla Aliens, there is only just a superficial veneer for fan service. It actually has non of the characters or even voices from Alien or Aliens so its so lacklustre, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ we just want to play as Ripley, Hicks, Hudson, Bishop or Vasquez there is no flavour, jokes or snappy dialogue, just no zing i would even settle for a just a Burke or Gorman. Everyone is just the usual safe diversity cast of utterly forgettable 20 somethings who are so boring. They try to throw fans a bone by scattering hidden little member berries around the missions that can be redeemed at the space ship hub for little expositions from the crew about characters and events from the movies we actually care about, but this is just so poorly voice acted and tedious dialogue i just skipped them all, which is just sad. Overall this is a tacky Alien themed all you can eat buffet restaurant where the food is not that great so you don't eat much and never go back to again. ( Also the DLC asking price of about half the cost of the base game for just 3 more missions is an absolute rip-off )
