Aliens: Dark Descent - New RTS coming in June

Couldn't find an existing topic for this. They just announced the release date - 20th of June - and a new trailer. It looks pretty good! Tentatively looking forward to it, after not really clicking with Fireteam Elite.

So it’s Cannon Fodder, with Xenomorphs? Cool.

Mostly.

Stop Your Grinnin and Drop Your Linen. I cant wait!

This looks pretty good, I thought it was a turn based X-Com type thing at first, but it being realtime* makes it much more attractive. 

 

*Bar slowing down for orders.

That looks promising, though I'm not a big fan of this type of game so it may not be for me.

New trailer for Alien Day, and you can now pre-order, should you wish. It's a reasonable £34.99 on Steam.

And another trailer, this time focused on gameplay. Not sure that I have a good sense of how it will play still, and some of the formations look a bit goofy. Might have dropped to wait for a sale territory for me, dunno.
