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
Uma mistura de Xcom, com RTS e com Darkest Dungeon no universo Alien. Isso realmente me surpreendeu.
i had this on the PS4 and have rebrought for the PC , much prefer playing on the PC , game is a lot smoother and easier to control. Gameplay is good and engrossing, certainly becomes challenging as you move through the campaign. Time is of the essence ... don't go skipping too many deployments

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.

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,420 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.

Aliens + RTS + Stress levels Good game 8/10
such a great game. if you enjoy alien franchise and rts/strat games then you would enjoy this as well. It runs great on deck, only complaint is the save system which makes it difficult to want to play when crunched for time. Definitely worth picking up on sale and doing a playthrough, about to start my second playthrough on newgame+ with a harder difficulty after having a understanding of mechanics now.
best aliens franchise game EVER!!!
I enjoyed it
Good game, kinda hardish before you learn how to cheese it, once you know how to cheese its ungratefully easy. Crashed twice. No manual save kinda annoying because of 3 alien ambush just kill guy.
Утомительная игра
棒棒
A fantastic game set in the *Alien* universe. It bears an incredible resemblance to *Aliens* (the second film). I hope there will be a sequel or at least some substantial DLC. The developers did a brilliant job capturing the world of the Xenomorphs and the Colonial Marines. Of course, I shouldn't just heap praise on it—the game does have minor flaws, but overall, they are negligible. I rate the game 9/10; it loses a point simply because a sequel hasn't been released yet.
