Japanese preview article with new screenshots.

Also digital PlayStation editions give you access to the both versions, i.e., PS4 and Ps5.
Yes, my favorite Alien game without Predators.

This could be fun, but everything from that trailer looked very mediocre to put it nicely.

What it should look like as the both trailers are based on gameplay?

Evrything and all of things about it. Animations, gfx, enemies just charging straight at the player, everything.

Wow! I guess you have not watched 3 gameplay videos yet.
Also show me a more refined game like this?

I'm a sucker for Aliens and I love multiplayer so I'll be buying this. Looks decent enough. Got all the classic sounds which is half the aliens experience haha. The Pulse Rifle is still the best sounding gun in movie history.

Anyone now if you can turn off HUD and the yellow damage bar and red x's? Kills the mood of an Aliens game which should be dark and clean.

Yes, this 25 mins footage shows gameplay core good enough. If it is your cup of tea, then you should not be disappointed. But bear in mind that the game is more on arcadey side than a simulator one.

The devs stated that HUD is customizable but some of its elements are forced off on higher difficulties.

Looks pretty good but I'm leaning into the YT comments about why do the aliens have outlines etc. The scary part was always the alients being unseen, like the movies. Boom then they've got you through tunnels or hiding in the shadows or dropping from the ceiling etc. It feels a little like handholding 101 with outlines etc and takes away from the atmosphere of Alien(s).
EDIT: didn't read the post right above mine. If all that is taken away on higher difficulties then cool, bring it on.

You can turn it off manually on other difficulty settings as well.

I'm so glad they actually had a social road map put together. Stoked about all of this footage. Can't wait for this, and I'm really hoping for the best.

Cautiously optimistic about this one. Looks very unpretentious and seems to deliver what's on the box....you and your buddies in an Aliens horde mode.

It looks absolutely shitty. You can't get more "generic cover shooter" than that.

Honestly, that's what I wanted more than anything. I mean, of course I wanted a revolutionary Aliens experience, but it was apparent we weren't getting that from the start when we found out Cold Iron was on it. Nothing against them, just not a huge and incredibly successful dev. It doesn't appear to try to innovate the wheel, unfortunately. But honestly, I'm fine with it being a fun time with friends in the Aliens universe. Especially more so than anything awful.
Shit, it looks a lot better than Colonial Marines, so at least there's that.

Then describe how to make cover mechanics or 3D TPS ones better.
Also how the game's graphics or aesthetics relate to hardware requirements and the game's performance?

Let's not forget that this is the first Cold Iron's game. And no company makes only great games consistently. No matter what previous experience of employees was.

Smart delivery on Xbox One and Series consoles only.

Very true and worth mentioning! Honestly for a first go, this is already looking better than a lot of other games we've seen, especially from a AA dev.

Anyone know how much the endeavor pack is by itself? I want to get the physical copy, the deluxe is $20 more and digital only
molasar

I personally expected it to be 3D co-op TPS on arcadey side. Not overcomplicated with other elements. And based on previews it meets my criteria.
Also I do not care about graphics as long as they are decent and performance is great.

No info on this yet. The devs only stated that it is the cheapest way to get all packs this way. It could be exclusive.

Ditto across the board, man.

Really? Have you seen Xeno swarms on this level in other Alien franchise games? Or refinement?

When does this come out? I'm holding out hope, my expectations are not wild. I just want a fun co-op shooter.

I gave the development team at Cold Iron some DLC ideas for the game on Twitter. My first "pitch" was DLC based on "Hadley's Hope", "Gateway Station" and "The Sulaco". Some Cold Iron devs liked the tweet/idea. Hope they consider it. A L I E N S is my all time favorite movie.
Anyways, game looks ACE!!

Only future cosmetic content is paid DLC. Anything else will be for free to everyone, e.g., new maps or modes.
