Arriving on 26th July, the free update introduces crossplay across all modes, letting you get into games faster with a wider pool of people. However, that’s not all we’re getting. The update will also add four new weapons, a new game mode called Restock Turrets, and a revamped Prestige progression system.
The co-op shooter Aliens: Fireteam Elite was released almost a year ago, and it’s enjoyable but not very noteworthy. The game has received consistent post-launch support from its creator Cold Iron Studios, so it’s probably a little better now. The upcoming update is significant because it introduces cross-platform gaming, which lets you team up with gamers on other platforms.
Highlights
This new system unlocks once you reach level 20. XP you earn from that point will go towards Prestige levels, of which there are 100. You’re rewarded for ranking up your Prestige with fancy nameplates, and every 10 levels, you earn yet more cosmetics like outfits, decals, and other accessories. You can see this all in the above trailer, which goes over the main points of the update. Are you still playing Aliens: Fireteam Elite? Reload in the comments section below.
