description Aliens: Infestation Overview
Aliens: Infestation is a 2D action-adventure game released for the Nintendo DS in 2011, developed by WayForward Technologies and published by Sega. Set in the Alien universe, players control a squad of Colonial Marines as they explore spacecraft like the USS Sulaco and the planet LV-426. The game combines Metroidvania-style exploration with run-and-gun combat, requiring players to manage their team carefully, as marines can permanently die if defeated. Its detailed sprite art and tense atmosphere aim to replicate the claustrophobic horror of the original film.
help Aliens: Infestation FAQ
How does the squad system work in Aliens: Infestation?
The player explores with one Colonial Marine active at a time while other recruited marines remain available as replacements. Each marine has a distinct name, appearance, dialogue, and equipment preference rather than functioning as a generic extra life.
Are dead marines permanently lost in Aliens: Infestation?
A marine taken by a Xenomorph may sometimes be rescued later from a hive before implantation proves fatal. If a character is definitively killed, however, that named marine is removed from the roster.
Which locations from the Alien films appear in Aliens: Infestation?
The game includes the USS Sulaco, the ship associated with Aliens, and visits LV-426. Its story and enemies draw broadly from the film series rather than directly retelling one movie.
