Disney’s 20th Century Studios and California developer Cold Iron Studios announced Aliens: Fireteam this week as an upcoming action-heavy, team-based survival horror shooter set in a new timeline moment in Ridley Scott’s iconic Alien movie-verse. There’s a new breed of Aliens game on the horizon, and that “S” at the end is there for a reason. We'll even throw in a good old-fashioned board game every now and then! Check in each Friday for news (and occasionally even views) on everything from sprawling RPGs to Metroidvania platformers to the latest in VR and free-to-play. Welcome to The Week in Gaming, the place where we pause each week to take a look at the video game news beats both big and small that you might be missing - while also taking a peek around the corner at what's ahead.
