With bite-sized story missions and a diverse line up of aliens to battle, Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a pretty decent stab at the licence, and pleasingly, brings a Marine-sized boot heel down on microtransactions and loot boxes. Left 4 Dead is a series of cooperative first-person shooter survival horror video games published by Valve.Set in the days after a pandemic outbreak of a viral strain transforming people into zombie-like feral creatures, the games follow the adventures of four survivors attempting to reach safe houses and military rescue while fending off the attacking hordes. There’s a class to suite pretty much everyone’s play style, and while you can play with your friends, you can always team up with the AI if you fancy it. Aliens: Fireteam Eliteįresh off store shelves, Cold Iron Studios’ sci-fi horror shooter takes place 23 years after the Alien trilogy, and does what it says on the tin: tasks players with teaming up as Colonial Marines and dispatching hordes of acid-spewing critters. Plus, the new Aftermath update is even better, offering a first-person view and a wealth of improvements to the base game.

It doesn’t rewrite the rule book, but that’s not a bad thing in this case. Whether it’s the once-bustling streets of New York City to the desolated, chilly Moscow, World War Z gives you ample opportunity to mow down hordes of zombies with a few mates in tow.
