Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
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.

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.

Reviews
Bought this game on sale. All in all it's a good game. I like the setting. But sometimes sudden cutscenes messed up my progress and I had to load a save (example: when the game focuses on something while I got spotted or was in the middle of combat). Performance was fine for me. And a few bugs here and there were a bit annoying.
Steam is disappointing... I try to play the game while I don't have Internet and I can't open it..

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.

un juego solido y atmosfera atrapante, su mecánica de llevar el escuadrón me parece de un potencial enorme, espero saquen una secuela o algo parecido.
Buen juego, divertido, atrapante. Lo recomiendo 100%, en especial si lo encuentran en descuento.

so many bugs, frustrating game design, not fun
如果你喜欢詹姆斯卡梅隆的电影《异形2》，那么这款游戏忠实还原了殖民地海军陆战队的素质。
One of the better Aliens games in the last 20 years (because most are crap). It's like XCOM+Aliens with RTS gameplay. The beginning of the game is the worst part, lost of difficulty customization to cater to your tastes... New Game+ after you beat it. Really fun and the story + Aliens theme kept me going.
Very good game! And challenging in a good way!
If you enjoyed the movies and love top down strategy games, give it a shot. Its on sale plentiful enough. I can recommend it to friends.
