Focus Entertainment has released a new five-minute gameplay trailer for Aliens: Dark Descent, its upcoming squad-based space-marine game. The new trailer has received praise for doing a better job of showing the game’s strengths in gameplay. mechanics, and visuals. The number one thing on just about everyone’s mind who is interested in the game is what state will it launch in. So far, 2023 has not been the best year in regard to the state of games at release, be it on console or PC, with many needing multiple patches in order to reach a playable state or at least one that resembles what players were expecting. LOTR: Gollum is one such game that over the weekend had gained the unwanted ranking as the lowest-rated game of 2023. Aliens: Dark Descent launches for PC and consoles on June 20 for $39.99.
