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.

Add-ons
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.

its a great game. its got a few rough spots and small bugs but an overall complete and solid experience.
very nice
스토리 : 처음에는 괜찮았음 행성 탈출을 위한 물자 모으고 함선 수리하고 살아남은 사람들 구출해서 핵폭탄 떨어지기전에 탈출하자였는데 갑분 카산드라가 나옴 얘가 지휘관 딸인데 얘를 구출해야겠데....근데 얘가 제노모프랑 뭔가 정신적으로 연결이됨 근데 그게 이유가 뭔지 왜 그런 능력(?)을 가지게 됐는지 안알려줌 무튼 그래서 지휘관 딸을 구출하러감.....그리고 구출하고 행성 탈출하고 끝 게임플레이 : 신선하고 재미있음 분대 하나만 컨트롤해서 미션을 깨는건데 전투를 하면 해병 하나하나의 스트레스가 쌓이는데 그러면 해병들이 트라우마가 생기고 능력치도 떯어지기 때문에 신경써야함 그렇다고해서 전투를 안하면 에일리언 표본을 수집하지 못하기 때문에 연구 업그레이드를 사용하지 못함 따라서 전투와 잠입을 섞어가며 플레이를 해야되서 재미있음 버그문제 : 한번씩 튕기는 현상이 생김 스토리는 뭐 그냥 스킵으로 넘기고 플레이만 하면 진짜 재미있음 이 게임 추천함

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.

A genuinely unique take on squad-based gameplay, with mechanics that capture the tension of the Alien series remarkably well. The slow-down mechanic stands out — it keeps the pressure high without ever letting you feel fully in control.
atmosfera pazzesca. ogni missione presenta sfide e si ha sempre la sensazione che una qualsiasi cosa possa andare male e farti fallire nel giro d pochi secondi. Grafica molto curata, atmosfera super. Il gioco è piuttosto longevo e credo si adatti molto bene ad essere rigiocato. Davvero consigliato.
i don't play strategy or real time tactics game but holy crap this game i super fun, i heard people say it has bugs but i haven't ran into any. i hope the make a second game
Awesome game! I haven't played these types of games since Jagged Alliance but I absolutely loved this game! The atmosphere and story are great — honestly better than some of the movies. I really hope we don't see the last of it, especially now that Alien Isolation also gets a sequel.
Great game! Would like a second game in the series, that has less bugs. Didn´t kill the fun for me tho.
gud
If you are into alien universe, you should definitely play this, can be annoying at times but overall, It's a good game. Fire Team tactics and gunplay can be better but what we have is not bad. the storyline is really good which makes up for any annoyance.
