‘Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2’ Announced, Coming This Summer [Trailer]

Despite being a year off, the rumours, as they say, were true. Developer Cold Iron Studios has teamed with Daybreak Game Company to announced the follow-up to 2021’s Aliens: Fireteam Elite with Fireteam Elite 2. The cooperative third-person shooter will launch this summer for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.

Once again, up to four players suit up as members of the Colonial Marines. This is not a rescue mission—it’s a fight for survival. Xenomorphs stalk the corridors, ambush from the shadows, and swarm in overwhelming numbers. You must coordinate with your fireteam, utilizing each class’s unique abilities, and adapt on the fly as encounters escalate from tense standoffs to all-out war.

Fireteam Elite 2 will feature deeper squad mechanics, smarter enemies, and a “fully customizable Specialist class” that lets players mix and match major and minor abilities from every available class into one Marine. Build a loadout tailored to your exact playstyle and fill whatever role your squad needs.

The game will also launch with multiple dedicated Horde maps that will push squads to their limits. Teams will battle through escalating waves of xenomorphs and other deadly enemies, earning increasingly valuable rewards as they survive deeper into the onslaught.

You can grab the original Aliens: Fireteam Elite on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, and PC via Steam. And check out our review of Fireteam Elite while you wait.
