The core skill set of every Marine, the Gunner carries a Rifle for ranged engagement and a CQW for when the action gets intense. Frag Grenades can disrupt massed foes, and the "Overclock" ability allows Gunners to increase their fireteam's weapons rate of fire.
Some days take a bit longer to recharge for than others.
Working Joe synth models can be found throughout the Katanga refinery, just waiting until they are needed. You mostly don’t need to worry about them. Mostly...

Your overconfidence has gotten the best of you. You advanced too quickly to notice the Prowler waiting just around the corner waiting to pounce on you. Now you’re held against the ground by a Xenomorph mere inches from digging it’s second jaw in you. How do you get out of this?
They’re already here! Gear up and join your Fireteam! Aliens: Fireteam Elite is now available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One and Steam.

Your only exit is blocked by a pack of Xenomorph Runners heading straight for you, and you might not be able to take them all out before they reach your fireteam. How do you handle the situation?
Our first big Quality Of Life update is here, fireteam! We’re addressing a bunch of common community requests, including:
🔸AI partner improvements
🔸Steam Community Items
🔸Matchmaking improvements
Check the patch notes for a full intel drop.
With over 30 different weapons at launch that you can level up through continued use and over 70 unique attachments to choose from, Aliens: Fireteam Elite gives you plenty of options for taking down xenomorphs just the way you like.
Pathogen enemies will quickly rush at your fireteam and surround you if you’re not cautious. Popper explosions can stack up even faster than your average acid blood shower, and when a Stalker's in the mix their camouflage can quickly lead to unpleasant surprises.
Gear up for the upcoming fight! Choose the right edition for you and take advantage of the preorder bonuses while you can. Aliens: Fireteam Elite arrives on August 24th:
A free Alien Day update is coming to Aliens: Fireteam Elite today - we're raising the currency cap to 100K, and making every challenge card pack in SSGT Park's shop FREE!
Happy Alien Day, fireteams 🔥
Nothing like a bit of cover fire when you’re in a tight spot. Make sure you get Second Lieutenant Ko a drink next time you’re at the Endeavor mess hall.
Tomorrow's the day! We're aiming for our Season 2 patch to be live by 10AM PST and to be live on Game Pass shortly after, by 12PM PST, on Tuesday, December 14th. See you then!
There have been documented cases of some unknown factor inducing rapid changes to local animal life on settled exoplanets – both native species and those imported from Earth. The 6-legged camouflaging Leon-895 has certainly changed significantly.
The Aliens: Fireteam Elite Season 2 free update packs a ton of firepower with new Hyperdyne weaponry. There are 4 new weapons and 13 new attachments to unlock and put to the test.
Find out more about the specs on our blog. Update launches on Dec.14th!

Don’t aim for the head - Praetorians are extraordinarily difficult to kill, with a bulletproof armored head plate used for ramming charges.
It’s been an incredible year and we’re so thankful to have been able to share this game with all of you.
Here's a look at the items, enemies, and locations we've experienced together so far in Aliens: Fireteam Elite 🔥
A mighty Praetorian has been drawn in by the Xenomorph swarms. It looked like you and your Fireteam might just have been able to make it out, but now that hope is beginning to crumble. How do you prioritize this threatening target while keeping the swarm at bay?
We’re getting reports of failing structural integrity on all 3 levels of the cistern maintenance room. Xenomorphs have taken it over, marines! Let’s take it back.
Each Marine platoon has a pair of combat synths available for missions, meet Alpha and Beta. They are your available AI companions, best at dealing with swarms of average foes, but may have difficulty responding effectively to larger, more durable opponents.
Aliens: Fireteam Elite will offer a wide array of challenges so that even the toughest of marines can get to show off their skills. Or if you can’t fill out your team and want something more casual, then take some AIs and try a lower difficulty.
Regroup with your Fireteam in the Endeavor’s hangar, where you’ll be able to debrief on your next mission, analyze new intel, stock up at the Armory, and maybe you can even show your fellow marines your latest knife trick.
You can never be too prepared. Get the

The USS Endeavor is filled with terrifying Xenomorphs and other enemies. Expand upon the blockbuster films in new storylines in an epic series of replayable campaigns.
Swarms of rushing xenomorphs aren’t the only threat in Aliens: Fireteam Elite, you’ll also need to watch out for the Drone’s Hit & Run tactics, sneaky Prowlers hiding around the corner, even explosive Synths and invisible Pathogen Stalkers! Will you Survive the Hive?
#SurviveTheHive
Runners are a quadruped morph, gestated within pack-hunting predators and herd species. You’ll want to take out these Xenos quickly - they’re pack hunters that will attack in large groups.
Patch 1.0.1.90218 is out for all platforms, bringing a round of weapons rebalancing as well as fixes for Achievements/Trophies related issues and more. Check out the full patch notes for more information:
The hostile synthetics found in Aliens: Fireteam Elite take advantage of their environs and the equipment they have at their disposal. Running and gunning is a risky business when dealing with a cadre of entrenched synthetics; utilize cover and pick your targets well.

It seems Weyland-Yutani has been keeping the alien ship known as "Asset Zero" at their secret facility on LV-895. What manner of research could they have been running on this mysterious relic this whole time? What else could they be hiding?
In addition to a standard Rifle, Demolishers operate Heavy weapons such as Smart Guns, Grenade Launchers, and flame units. They are equipped with Impact Rockets to break up massed attacks at range, and a concussive Blastwave to knock back foes at close range.

Drones are the adult form of a Xenomorph gestated within a human host. They move silently through the walls, killing their victims and disappearing without a trace.
