So after The Predator joined the popular massively multiplater battle royale game Fortnite to hunt humans and do The Floss, it was only a matter of time before the Alien franchise got in on the fun.

This was also revealed after this transmission from the game's official Twitter account, which mentions a ship “running on tech that seems to be from 1986”, which seems to be an Aliens reference, among other clues:
