Description

The Aliens: Fireteam Elite - Pathogen expansion is now available! Pick up where AFE left off with fresh environments, new maps, additional cosmetics, and a brand-new campaign that thrusts the Endeavor's crew into their most dangerous mission to date.

A strange and deadly pathogen has emerged across the untamed wilderness of planet LV-895, sparing nothing in its wake — not even the Xenomorphs themselves. The Endeavor's crew must push into unexplored territory and confront horrifying new adversaries as they race to uncover the origin of this enigmatic biological threat.

On LV-895, the pathogen is warping both Xenomorphs and native wildlife into grotesque, mutated forms. Rally your fireteam, tear through waves of corrupted enemies, and hunt down the source of this spreading infection before it consumes everything in sight.

The Pathogen expansion injects a wealth of new content into the AFE experience, featuring entirely new environments, maps, weapons, and much more. Investigate ancient Engineer ruins tied to the mystery of the outbreak, descend into the depths of enemy hives, and navigate treacherous hazards lurking around every turn. Do you have what it takes to make it out alive?

It's a sale now. Base game (12 missions): 5,99€ This thing (3 missions): 4,94€ It's a little hard not to feel ripped off, especially after you've "completed" the game before this DLC came out (as I've done). At least

If you want more of the same, then go ahead. 15 bucks is a steep asking price though. Effectively you're getting 3 new "maps", and like "new enemies", which are mostly reskins of old enemies. One spits, one whallops,

Overhyped, Overrated, Overpriced. For the little content it adds at nearly half the price of the base game, it's a ripoff cash grab. 1/10 Not Recommended. PS: Only get this when it's on discount.

It is really lacking in content for its price. It should have about double everything new it's added, so I recommend you only get it on sale, or for cheap on a trusted site.

Eh, the DLC is ok. It's got new ability mods for all the classes, new guns, new attachments and some new perks. But it's only 3 missions long and you only get to fight the Pathogen in 2 of those missions. This isn't
