Enad Global 7 did not officially mention in the press release that the new game is "Alien: Fireteam 2", but it did mention that it is a cooperative action shooting game based on a well-known movie IP, and the developer is Cold Iron Studios, so this new game is actually "Alien: Fireteam 2".

According to previously leaked PPT, "Alien: Fireteam 2" will have five character archetypes (Swift, Deadly, Silent, Commander, and Ranger), each of which has its own unique main weapons and abilities.There's also said to be an Annihilation mode, which is inspired by the classic Horde mode and is more diverse in terms of encounters and objectives.
