Yeah, you can ignore almost all of that trailer and focus on the final few seconds when it shows teeny bits of the game. The marketing blurb explains: Dark Descent is made by Tindalos Interactive, who are best known for the Battlefleet Gothic: Armada series of real-time spaceship strategy games set in the world of Warhammer 40,000. Like those, this is published by Focus. “Customise your squad with a selection of different classes. Level up and specialize your soldiers with unique abilities and an arsenal of weapons, armor, and perks, for high stakes missions in treacherous territory. Develop your base to research new tech and improve your squad even further.” Aliens: Dark Descent is headed to Steam in 2023. It’ll also be on PlayStations and Xboxes. Two minutes before this game was announced, I posted about Space Beast Terror Fright, an Aliens-inspired roguelikelike FPS with pleasingly squishy space marines. You could play that right now.
