Aliens: Fireteam Elite

The Nintendo Switch often gets games late, but eventually they do come.

On April 26 — Alien Day, Aliens: Fireteam Elite is set to launch on the platform. The third-person co-op survival shooter will be crossplay too, allowing Switch players to team up with those on Xbox, PlayStation, or PC.

The game, developed by Cold Iron Studios, initially launched way back in 2021. In Aliens: Fireteam Elite, players control a team of Colonial Marines fighting against evolving Xenomorphs throughout various challenges. The game features a wide range of customization options for players to create their own Marine, including classes, weapons, gear, and perks.

Please note, however, that the Switch version will only be accessible through Cloud Gaming, meaning a stable internet connection is needed while playing.
