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.

好。
Aliens Dark Descent est une excellente surprise, oppressante, sombre et fidèle aux films, avec une tension permanente qui donne vraiment l’impression de mener une escouade de Marines au cœur d’un cauchemar xénomorphe. Le système tactique est très réussi, les combats sont nerveux, la gestion du stress et des blessures ajoute une vraie dimension stratégique, et chaque expédition devient rapidement une lutte pour la survie. La progression de l’escouade donne aussi beaucoup d’attachement aux soldats, ce qui rend chaque perte particulièrement douloureuse. Je recommande +++

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.

Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
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.

La realidad es que es una chulada de juego solo que al mi parecer cuanto mas juegas menos cosas desbloqueables se encuentran a la larga fue lo unico malo sin me embargo las mecanicas , el combate , la historia , y las habilidades en si recomiendo este juego 10/10
ayy lmao
Fun, quite difficult if you want to keep all your marines alive, nice atmosphere and good management side.
A refreshingly original take on classic tactics. This game doesn’t just copy the old formulas, it approaches them in a non-standard way
I don't usually write Steam reviews, but after finishing this game, I felt I should leave a few words here. I RECOMMEND this game to everyone—not just *Aliens* fans. Major strengths of this title include its dark, engaging storyline. The heavy atmosphere and constant tension (especially on Nightmare difficulty) can really give you goosebumps. You lead your squad through various maps while simultaneously developing your base (conducting research and equipping your team with new weapons and gear). What's more, every squad member represents an investment; losing one hurts and affects you throughout subsequent missions. While playing, I found myself thinking about how to beat a specific map or upgrade my squad even while at work—something that hadn't happened to me since my school days (it’s a nice feeling to recapture that carefree childhood vibe). Getting back to the main point: it’s not a 10/10 game—it has plenty of bugs—but it is a fantastic experience. I had a great time with it.
Solid gameplay and fun to play! Story ain't ground-breaking but it's engaging enough :)
Absolute cinema. Don't skip, let it flow. Fun and different gameplay. You really feel the Alien universe and interacting with it.
cannon fodder meets x-com.
