Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 is getting all the more enticing with every glimpse we’re being given. The latest one involves the Marauder class, which Cold Iron is calling the “force multiplier” of the titular fireteam.
Unlike the endgame Specialist Class that lets you mix and match between the different tools on offer, the Marauder is focused on staying brutally effective at both ranged and melee combat, bringing some very destructive firepower to the field. He’s got rocket launchers for long-range assaults, while deadly concussive grenades can stop a Xenomorph in its tracks.
Of course, he brings a flamethrower to the party that’s going to be pretty effective at close encounters. Top that off with a bunch of missiles that he can deploy in a pinch, and you’ve got the makings of a warrior who likes big explosions and a flamboyant approach to dealing with deadly threats.
He’s probably going to be a great addition to the many ways you can co-ordinate your attacks. The showcase below is as exciting as the game’s previously revealed prologue, but there isn’t a release date other than a Summer 2026 window for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. We’ll keep you updated in the coming months, so stay tuned.
