Aliens vs Predator
About the Game
Aliens vs Predator is a remake of the 1999 PC game Aliens Versus Predator , in which players can choose either Marine, Xenomorph (commonly known as Aliens) or Predator in a first-person shooter. The narrative takes place on the planet designated BG-386, in a mining colony owned by the Weyland-Yutani Corporation where they have found a mysterious site; an ancient pyramid that depicts an unknown alien race and the Xenomorphs. Curious, they decide to forcibly open the doors and cause a massive energy backlash that causes the power on the entire planet to go out, unleashing hell in the process. This is where the story begins for the three factions:

There are various weapons such as a pistol, pulse rifle, sniper rifle, flamethrower, shotgun and the smart gun players can use against the various enemies scattered throughout the stages. There is also the iconic motion tracker that can pick up on enemy movement, flares and a flashlight for seeing in very dark spaces and stims that will replenish their health. Aliens : players take control of an Alien nicknamed "Six".
