The Upcoming ‘Aliens: Fireteam’ Video Game is Getting a Prequel Novel With ‘Aliens: Infiltrator’!

While we wait for the new video game Aliens: Fireteam from Cold Iron Studios, set for release this summer, we’ve learned today that the game is getting its own prequel novel.

Written by Weston Ochse, Titan Books will release Aliens: Infiltrator on April 20!

“Discover the official prequel to the huge new Alien video game from Cold Iron Studios, as a Weyland-Yutani scientist arrives at Pala Station and finds the researchers there courting disaster… of the Xenomorph kind.”

In the novel, “Dr. Timothy Hoenikker arrives on Pala Station, a Weyland-Yutani facility. Lured there by the promise of alien artifacts, instead he finds a warped bureaucracy and staff of misfits testing the effects of Xenomorph bio-materials on living creatures. Unbeknownst to the personnel, however, there is an infiltrator among them whose actions could spell disaster.

“Also on staff is Victor Rawlings, a former marine who gathers together other veterans to prepare for the worst. As the personnel receive a delivery of alien eggs, the experiments spin out of control, and only the former Colonial Marines can stand between the humans and certain death.”
