Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 4.86/day in the week to Sep 3 → 9.71/day in the week after.

Each DLC is estimated with the same model as a game, then summed — a modeled figure, not reported DLC sales.
Sums Steam only; PlayStation, Xbox, Epic publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.

Reviews
brak manualnego zapisu w grze, której możliwość progresu psuje się co 10 minut to ciekawy wybór, a wydajność też jest zaskakująco słaba jak na tak graficznie średnio wyglądającą grę
Tiene sus fallos,no es perfecto y algunos bastante feos, que después de los años no se han solventado, como partidas corrompidas que no te permiten avanzar o cargas de partidas que hay problemas de UI,pero aún así, es de los mejores juegos de la franquicia de Alien que se han hecho (junto con el Isolation), básicamente es un XCOM,pero mucho más directo y muy bien diferenciado, no hay turnos por ejemplo, todo está muy bien hilado, todo tiene sentido y coherencia ,la historia no es nueva,no reinventa nada,pero está muy bien construdia y sobre todo la ambientación, estás dentro de las 2 primeras películas de la franquicia.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Aug 22: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

She dark on my descent until I retribution.
bug太多了,才玩到第三关,三四个bug,卡在地图外面回不到视角,剧情结束回不到操作,任务完成后无法结束。。。。游戏还不错,这么多bug让我每次都得重新读存档,太影响体验了
給你錢,拜託快出續作 這才是遊戲該有的樣子
its really good, like REALLY REALLY GOOD ! people like mandalore has already told everything there was to say, so lets make this quick Positive : - The mission structure/open world nature mixed with "real time xcom" is so good, its original, work really well and always surprise, its a very original brew but damn does it hit hard -The art direction is on top, you would think that being in top-down view would be a challenge for the art but no, the sens of scale is great, there is ton of details everywhere, you never feel like the visual got compromised - the game strike a surprising balance between action, stealth and quick thinking, all those parts work together and you don't feel one dominating the other or what, you have to play into all those parts, work pretty great - very solid sound design, weather, alien,, music, very nice - the overall idea of the game is pretty unique, i said it was "open world real time xcom" but that doesn't really make justice to the game, its pretty original and hard to find something like this, the game make great use of the setting (alien) Negative : - the story is meh, its not bad, its not particulary good, its meh, its not distracting and clearly the quality of the game overall allow you to just brush over this part -A slight lack of variety when it come to everything, i kinda wish there was diversity in the alien bestiary - the difficulty, this game has ton of fun and challenging moment, but toward the end you can feel that it run out of tools to challenge you, again its not a deal breaker but you feel it - now the sad part, despite being great, fantastic, original and all the positive words you can think of, this game will probably never get a sequel and its suucccckkkss, cause a sequel is absolutely what this game need Its sad to know that despite this game managing to reach for greatness, it will never be allowed to have another shoot at that idea, however despite that i STRONGLY recommend it, hell i even recommend it even if your not a fan of the alien franchise, its just that good, the game stand on its own with its original ideas and it stand strong alright, now pleaaaaaseee pleaseee someone make a spiritual sequel to this game, i beg you, there is so much more to be explore here
Such a fantastic slice of the "Alien" universe. Not as deep as X-COM with its resource & base management. Only some minor base-y things to do here but it's still great. Action packed levels and good atmosphere.
A ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awesome RTS game set in the Alien universe. Gameplay is unique, story is great. 2nd best Alien game after Alien Isolation (and arguably the best "Aliens" game). Definitely worth playing. Really hope they make a sequel some day.
Amazing game, please make a sequel!! I would like something similar with Resident Evil.
I thought I won't like this style of game but it was very entertaining. The moment it got verified on SD i played it twice more.
