Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 Wiki

Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 is a third-person co-op survival shooter from Cold Iron Studios and Daybreak Game Company, made with 20th Century Games. Up to four Colonial Marines fight through hostile environments filled with Xenomorphs, Synths, and other threats. The core loop is simple: prepare a Marine, enter an operation, and adapt when a controlled encounter turns into a swarm.

The sequel adds four-player co-op, five core classes, a customizable Specialist, deeper progression, and expanded weapon customization. Medic, Hunter, Machinist, Marauder, and Duelist each approach combat differently, while Specialist is designed for flexible endgame builds. Campaign missions and an updated Horde Mode give squads different ways to test their roles and loadouts. Support, control, automated defense, and explosive pressure can all matter depending on the operation.

Choose a role, build your loadout, and coordinate when enemies swarm. Fire Modes, Augments, and Weapon Traits let you adapt weapons to the mission, while movement, awareness, communication, and resource management remain important in every fight. Solo players can use the single-player option with companion Bots, while co-op teams can coordinate across supported platforms. The official description also emphasizes smarter enemies and deeper squad mechanics. The official material does not provide every unlock, stat, or balance result, so those details should be checked against the latest patch notes rather than guessed.

The game launched on August 25, 2026 for Steam, Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Cross-platform co-op and cross-platform voice chat are supported, and the Nintendo Switch 2 version is scheduled for September 29, 2026.
