This past month in June, the hunger for a truly gripping movie-adapted video game was offered a small taste with the cinematic trailer for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. While the footage did not directly represent the full game in its entirety, players grew excited since the first announcement to the recent trailer were divided by roughly three years since the game’s unveiling in 2018.

However, players should also note another video game centered around a film franchise is on the horizon. In that, Cold Iron Studios is currently cleaning up development on Aliens: Fireteam. Following the success of suspense thriller Alien Isolation, fans are interested to see where the next console release for the series will take the brand to next.

In a recent pre-order trailer for the game, Cold Iron Studios unveils a very close August release date for the game. You can watch the trailer in its entirety in the video below:

“Set in the iconic Alien universe, Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a cooperative third-person survival shooter that drops your fireteam of hardened marines into a desperate fight to contain the evolving Xenomorph threat,” Cold Iron Studios writes for the game’s overview in the trailer’s description.

“Face off against waves of terrifying Xenomorph and Weyland-Yutani Synthetic foes alongside two players or AI teammates, as you and your fireteam desperately fight your way through four unique campaigns that introduce new storylines to the Alien universe. Create and customize your own Colonial Marine, choosing from an extensive variety of classes, weapons, gear, and perks, battling overwhelming odds in this heart-pounding survival shooter experience.”
