Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 Review So Far

The gaming community has been buzzing about Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2, the sequel to the 2021 title that saw players tackling Xenomorphs with marines on the USS Endeavor. The sequel expands on the formula with added players and a new class, but reviewers are left pondering how long the fun will last after the credits roll.

The game presents players with a mission to retrieve a missing Fireteam Banshee from a Weyland-Yutani mining colony overrun by Xenomorphs. Players take on various roles, from the tough-as-nails squad leader Ko to the ship's android Esther. The missions involve hunting for intel, breaking things, and completing objectives while battling the Xenomorphs in various forms, such as runners, spitters, and big red Xenos called Prowlers.

Fireteam Elite 2 offers a fresh twist with its additional player and specialist class, allowing players to combine the abilities of multiple classes for a more personalized experience. However, the repetitive nature of the missions and the lack of real camaraderie between the characters leave some room for improvement. Despite these drawbacks, fans of the series and co-op shooter enthusiasts should find plenty to enjoy in Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2, especially with friends.
