Daybreak Game Company and developer Cold Iron Studios have announced Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2, a cooperative third-person shooter sequel arriving this summer on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.

Marking the 40th anniversary of the Aliens film franchise, the sequel expands the squad size from three to four players and introduces more aggressive Xenomorph variants designed to overwhelm Colonial Marine teams.
A major addition to the sequel is the Specialist class, which offers deep customization by allowing players to mix and match abilities from across the game’s various character classes.
Alongside the main campaign, Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 will launch with multiple dedicated Horde Mode maps, challenging squads to survive escalating waves of enemies using an expanded arsenal that includes elemental ammo types and melee options like stun batons. According to game director Chris Cross, the project aims to deliver an immersive “bug hunt” experience while leaning further into the survival-horror tension of the source material.
