A video longer than five minutes with commentary presents Aliens: Dark Descenttactical real-time strategy game in which you lead a team of tough colonial marines to stop a terrifying xenomorph attack on the moon of Lethe.
The video reveals a lot of information about the story and gameplay, including various mechanics and permanent death system for your characters.
But you take it from the start. In the game, you will control a squad of up to five marines and lead them through various environments to uncover secrets and find an escape route from the moon.
The campaign will be “rich, textured, and full of tension,” helped by the possible loss of characters. Indeed, in Aliens: Dark Descent, the growth and development of marines plays a central role, but there is always the risk of permanently losing one or more units due to permanent death, which is always active.. Therefore, players must plan every step and, perhaps, be prepared for the fact that after a failed mission they will have to rebuild their team from scratch. Fortunately, the Marines are well equipped, including flamethrowers.
Eternal death must be a sad reality, where every mistake has irreversible consequences; and the more experienced the Marines, the more painful their loss will be. Therefore, you must constantly adapt and change your tactics in order to stay one step ahead of the Aliens.
“Players will control their unit as one with an innovative and intuitive keyboard/mouse and controllers. Marines respond intelligently to orders thanks to a unique squad behavior system that automatically sends them to the battlefield.. When the xenomorph threat is too great, you can always slow down time and focus on tactical decisions in the heat of battle.” reports a press release.
FEAR AT EVERY STEP
But Aliens: Dark Descent won’t just be about suspense and horror. In addition, strategic thinking and planning are required to achieve success.. Players must carefully manage their resources, collect supplies and weapons while avoiding detection by aliens and other enemies.
“We tried from the very beginning to create a tense atmosphere; there are mysteriously darkened hallways, flashing fluorescent lights and the constant threat of Xenomorph attacks, but what really changed Aliens: Dark Descent for the better is that we implemented our unique fog of war mechanic where areas of the map are hidden to instill fear and give players free rein to your imagination. This means that you must carefully plan your path and movements at every turn, taking into account the risk of encountering a Xenomorph or other unknown danger. says creative director Romain Clavier of Tindalos Interactive.
Aliens: Dark Descent will release on June 20 this year for PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, and Xbox One.
