The release of Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 took place: Players are crushing the cooperative shooter on Steam

The publisher Daybreak Game Company has released the cooperative shooter Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2. It’s available on PC, Xbox Series X|S and PS5 (i.e., current‑gen platforms). Development was handled by the studio Cold Iron.

You’ll again lead a four‑person squad of colonial marines into battles against xenomorphs and Weyland‑Yutani mercenaries. The sequel focuses on expanded class customization and smarter enemy AI, and the monster bestiary has been enlarged.

User reaction on Steam, however, is overwhelmingly negative. Players cite terrible optimization, lack of Russian language support, poor animations, awful sound design, etc. Oddly — and perhaps tellingly — there are no critic or blogger reviews online yet.
