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.

Polecam wszystkim fanom taktycznych skradanek w rzucie izometrycznym. Mroczny klimat Obcego robi w tej grze robotę.
I am a huge fan of the Aliens franchise. There are few fantasy universes that I feel more drawn to. I am also a huge fan of Real Time Tactics games such as the Commandos franchise, Shadow Tactics, etc. This game is the beautiful intersection of those two things and it is wonderful. Pros: The sound is exquisite. The graphics look just like you'd want a god POV in the Aliens universe to look. The gameplay is fun. They say it's an extremely difficult game, and although it's definitely got some difficulty to it but I wouldn't put it out there as the dark souls of RTT games. I love that you can upgrade your soldiers. The idea of deploying and swapping out soldiers feels unique and novel. I love that you have more than just "easy medium hard" for difficulty settings. Cons: I have had 2 glitches forcing me to load a previous save, one glitch ruined an hour of my gameplay. I think a little more love should have been given to the models, some of the soldiers look super... not human? I dunno. Mainly just the females. Sound fatigue is a common occurrence, hearing the same 3 audio clips for any given action makes the marines sounds get on my nerves, especially all the idle sounds but specifically the "They're coming right for us" sound is used OFTEN when a xenomorph was somewhere within the tracker even when across the map and it's standing still. I wish there was an option to get rid of those sounds instead of the confirmation of orders sounds (Yes sir! Moving up! etc). It's a flawed game, but it falls neatly into a spot in my heart, the mix of Aliens and RTT is something I never knew I needed in my life but holy crap it makes me happy just to think about and start playing.

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.

Игра довольно крутая и атмосферная. НО разработчики почему-то до ужаса боятся сохранений. сейв требует расходника(которого мало), подходящую комнату которых тоже мало и они часто довольно далеко от сюжетных сцен и при этом каждый раз при загрузке сохранения игра пододвигает маркер тревоги вперёд и спавнит из воздуха противников рядом. Всё бы ничего, но это игра на Unreal и может вылететь в важный момент от чего угодно. При этом игра не сложная и даже маленькая просто местами перегибает. было очень весело получить 3 раза ивент на речь перед 11 миссией из 12, когда там таймер на 5 дней.
A very fun take on the Real Time Tactical genre. Many of your actions can be taken slow and methodical to investigate the best way to deal with any area before you commit to it. Time, stealth, placement, squad makeup are all variables that influence your actions, enemy actions, and how the maps evolve as you take your time in them. Real time but with a slow down button to get highly focused and tactical.
классная тактическая игрушка, жаль только короткая, мало доп контента или миссий

Really enjoyed this. Great atmosphere, genuinely tense gameplay and the Xenomorphs are absolutely terrifying when things start going wrong. The squad management and resource system work really well, and every mission feels like it could go sideways at any moment. If you're an Aliens fan and like tactical games, definitely worth playing. 👽🔥
This is THE game for all the fans of the Alien franchize. After the awesome "Isolation" this is the next best game ever. It is challenging, but at the same time satisfactory. I took a break after finishing it for the first time, and now I'm on the middle of the Game+ mode and I'm having as much - if not more - fun as the first time.
Welll, if you llike the Alien franchise and specificallly the 2nd movie..I have 3 words for you: just buy it.
挺好玩的还很便宜 推荐了 比火力小队强
