Let’s talk about the new game mode first. In the unimpressively named “Restock Turrets”, you have to keep your turrets restocked so they can keep firing on “Xenomorphs coming from every direction.” It’s a little extra maintenance work on top of your own efforts to fight waves of aliens, but also the kind of task that encourages proper collaboration with pals.
Season four is out now and also adds new weapons and a handful of other tweaks, whichyou can read about in full on the Aliens: Fireteam Elite site. The release of season four also brings the game’s Year One roadmap to a close. The next piece of content on the cards isthe Pathogen expansion, which is paid DLC which adds a few new story missions.
The general consensus on Aliens: Fireteam Elite from pals who’ve played it is: ‘hey, this is alright!’. It’s a solid and unremarkable good time - but expresesd with a sense of surprise, because the same can’t be said of a lot of other Aliens games.
