Developer Cold Iron Studios has previously stated it is developing a game that builds « on the success of Aliens: Fireteam Elite ».
It sure looks like Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 is in development, and it could be set for a surprise launch before the end of the year. While this apparent sequel to Cold Iron Studios’ 2021 blaster hasn’t been officially announced yet, it has seemingly been rated by the ESRB.
As spotted by Gematsu (via PCGamesN) a listing for Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 briefly appeared on the website for the ESRB—the US’ entertainment ratings body. The page, which has since been taken down, awarded Fireteam Elite 2 a « Mature » rating for « Blood and Gore, Strong Language and Violence » (sounds like an Aliens game!).
The page also mentioned the sequel was being published by Daybreak Games Company (as opposed to Focus Entertainment, the original game’s publisher) and that it’s coming to PC as well as PS5 and Xboxes large and small.
