RECRUIT, LEVEL UP, OUTSMART THE ONSLAUGHT
Face off in a gripping original Alien story against iconic Xenomorph creatures ranging from Facehuggers to Praetorians, Alien Queens and many more.
GUNNER
The Gunner is one of the most recognizable marine of the squad, a sturdy daredevil holding a M56 Smart Gun and providing his team with an exceptional fire support.
MEDIC
Expert to maintain the squad in a good shape, the Medic is vital to any marine formation, providing exhaustive healing abilities to his brothers in arms.
RECON
Quick and equipped with a Light Pulse Rifle, the Recon is the deadly master scout the squad counts on.
SERGEANT
The Sergeant is the keystone of the squad, a charismatic team leader with a strategic mindset, who provides confidence and control to the squad.
TECKER
Undoubtedly the most intelligent asset of the squad, the Tecker is a resourceful and clever marine capable to hack almost anything.
EXPLORE A PERSISTENT, REACTIVE WORLD FROM THE ALIEN FRANCHISE
Manage your resources wisely and take calculated risks to outsmart the deadliest creature mankind has ever faced. Can you and your squad stop the outbreak before it’s too late?
Facehuggers
When an Egg detects a suitable host, the Facehugger it contains comes to life. This spider-like, parasitoid form of the xenomorph exists solely to implant a Chestburster within a living creature.
GUARDIANS
Guardians are the elite of the Darwin Era, not only in a combat sense but in a culctural one as well. These fanatics voluntarily undergo the implantation of a device Marlow named Embryostatis, which slows down the Xenomorph life cycle by postponing the "birth" of the creature. Equipped with such an apparatus, the Guardians are able to walk among the Xenomorphs without danger.
PRAETORIANS
Theories state that Praetorians evolve from chosen Drones once a Hive nears its full development. Significantly larger and tougher than typical Xenomorphs, these bipedal creatures can be identified by their broad head crest and longer dorsal spines.
QUEEN
Every Hive is led by a Queen. These specimens are regarded as the biggest and most intelligent form of the Xenomorph. A Queen's main purpose is to lay within the Hive, a mission she completes with the help of Ovipositor, a sort of abdornen that produces Eggs.
RUNNER
Quite different to human-spawned Xenomorphs, the Runners probably inherit their physiology from four-legged animals, like cows or dogs. As their name implies, Runners are exceptionally fast and athletic, but their speed comes with a cost, for they are nowhere near as resilient as Drones or Warriors.
SYNTHETIC
These old Maintenance Synths originally manufactured by Seegson have been purchased by the Weyland-Yutani on outdated stations and then repurposed with a better AI to serve on Pioneer.
WARRIOR
Whether Drones and Warriors are two separate classes within the Hive is still up for debate. One thing is for sure though: specimens described as Warriors are considered even more dangerous. Most of them are recognizable by their ridged skulls and segmented tails, which makes these bipedal Xenomorphs look even more Sinister.
