Another day, another PS5 game leaked before its official announcement. This time around, the sequel to an underrated cooperative third-person shooter that has yet to be revealed has received a rating on the official Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) website.
Unannounced Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 appears on ESRB website
The ESRB website had a listing for Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2. Not much information was given on the listing, but it did confirm that it would release for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, and will be rated M (Mature 17+) for Blood and Gore, Strong Language, and Violence. For those familiar with the Alien franchise and the previous game, this really isn’t a surprise, as this was the same case for the first Aliens: Fireteam Elite.
Perhaps the more surprising part about this listing beyond its actual existence is that Daybreak Game Company is listed as the publisher. The original Aliens: Fireteam Elite was developed and published by Cold Iron Studios.
When Aliens: Fireteam Elite was originally released for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, it received decent review scores. According to the review aggregate site Metacritic, it garnered an average score of 69 across 35 critic reviews. At our sister site ComingSoon, they gave it a 7.5 out of 10.
“It’s clear that Fireteam Elite is a love letter to the franchise and one made with a lot of respect for the source material and the expanded universe,” reads our review. “There are moments when the action truly comes together that feel magical. Situations where players are getting overwhelmed by an onslaught of xenomorphs only to barely scrape by with help from their friends provide memorable action. However, that magic is fleeting rather than a constant occurrence and the game never finds the optimal balance between being an authored experience and one that is being replayed a decade later like Left 4 Dead 2 or other gold standards in the genre.”
