Aliens: Fireteam Elite Season 2 Coming December 14th

Cold Iron Studios today announced that Season 2 of Aliens: Fireteam Elite will be available on December 14th, for players across all platforms.

Following the September release of Season 1: Phalanx, this new season includes free items for all players, including a new mode called Point Defense. This fast-paced alternative to Horde Mode will challenge players in a new survival-based defensive match where your fireteam must protect, repair, and hold 3 different strategic points through multiple attack waves from the xenomorph hive. Players may buy temporary consumables to even the odds by utilizing Fabrication Points earned during the mode and can unlock up to 20 new rewards by completing the mode at various difficulties.

Season 2: Point Defense features the following free content:

• New Game Mode: Point Defense;
• New Feature: Lifetime Stats;
• New weapons, attachments, and cosmetics added to the game as Point Defense rewards or at the in-game store;
• New challenge cards.

Coinciding with the release of Season 2, the second Endeavor Pass DLC Pack, The Nostromo Salvage Pack, will also be made available. Emerging from a 57-year hypersleep, this pack includes over 20 exclusive items, including two Nostromo-themed class kit skin designs, eight weapon colors, four decals, four head accessories, four emotes, and more. The complete 4-DLC Endeavor Pass is included with the Deluxe Edition of the game. Individual Endeavor Pass cosmetic DLC packs are available separately for $9.99 USD each.
