Does Aliens Dark Descent have Multiplayer or Co-Op?

Are you a team player?

One of the most terrifying childhood memories I had was watching the Alien movie and seeing the Xenomorph for the first time. It left an impression on me, and I've been unable to play most Alien games as they have a horror element to them. Fortunately, Aliens: Dark Descent is more action and strategy-based, but I still find myself preferring to play with a friend rather than alone. This left me wondering if there is multiplayer or co-op in Aliens: Dark Descent.

Is Aliens Dark Descent Multiplayer?

The answer is no—Aliens: Dark Descent does not have multiplayer. It is a single-player experience and has no multiplayer option. Despite having multiple characters to control in the campaign, you are all alone in commanding your soldiers. If you need help, make sure you play the tutorial to learn the basics and be at your best command.

Can you play Aliens Dark Descent Co-op?

Just as there is no multiplayer mode, the Aliens: Dark Descent campaign is single-player and can only be played by one person. Throughout the story, you command multiple units and must act on your own initiative. While many fans want co-op in Aliens: Dark Descent, developer Tindalos Interactive has decided not to include this feature.

Will Aliens Dark Descent get Multiplayer Co-op?

At the time of writing, Tindalos has not announced any plans to add co-op or multiplayer to the game. This does not mean the feature won't come in an update, but there is no guarantee that Aliens: Dark Descent will gain co-op or multiplayer. However, some dedicated fans may add this with a mod, but again, there is no guarantee. Aliens: Dark Descent is exclusively single-player and remains so for the foreseeable future.
