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.

Разъёб лютый. Есть конечно баги, которые бросаются в глаза, и которые никто не починил за 3 года с релиза, да и к лицам персонажей вопросики, ну да ладно. Геймплей отличный, свежий, да и сюжет захватывает. Длительность игры как раз в меру и не успевает надоесть (ну почти).
I wish I would have played it sooner. I played it when it first came out but let the first "prolog" mission deter me from a great game. I really enjoy how the squad commands work and think this game is under rated. I am sad that the developer will probably not be making any more content for this game. Would love to see perhaps a Warhammer game come out with this type of squad play.

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.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
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.

Pretty nice game, I enjoyed it, though it can be stressful at some points
This has to be my favorite Aliens game to date. Alien Dark Decent is to Alien(Movie) as Alien Isolation is to Alien(Movie) Your marines are tough an capable without feeling over powered. The aliens are fast and dangerous but can e cut down by the marines with proper spacing and placement. The development team has come up with a great balance of tense stealth with explosive action. There are a few bugs in the game (no pun intended) and the style of the game is unique so its hard to recommend to people without steering them to video reviews. However, this game has me hooked! Great balance of tense gameplay with explosive action sections. Unique mechanics oozing with early Aliens franchise style, sound and atmosphere.
Game has a small learning curve. I got wrecked pretty bad my first go. as a casual when it comes to this type of strategy game, it took a few mission failures to get on track. Going head on with the enemy is not a great idea, using traps, diversions, and a little stealth is mostly the way to go if you dont want a quick game over. The voice acting can get a bit irritating since it is alot of repeat but after a while you ignore it. Outside of that the atmosphere, the music, the level designs, and the rest of the sound is wonderful, just like the movies, Would recommend.
Не ига а КОСМОС Жаль нет такой игры от первого лица да и в коопе
Fuyez ce jeu bourré de bugs qui annihilent le plaisir de jouer
10/10, gave me crippling PTSD.
One of the better RTS games I’ve played. Truly unique style. Wish for a sequel.
Te va encantar si sos fan de la saga Alien, pero tiene demasiados bugs, más de una vez pensé en dejarlo por la cantidad de bugs que tiene.
