Mechanics

Alien Resurrection from Argonaut Games is a representative of the first-person shooter genre. The title was one of the first to introduce to the genre the concept of control based on two analog sticks, of which the left one was responsible for the movement of the character, and the right one for looking around the area.

The action takes place on ten levels, during which the players take control of four different characters - Ellen Ripley, Callem, DiStephano, and Christie. Each of the protagonists has different equipment, some also have access to unique types of weaponry. The game consists mainly of fighting enemies, among which, in addition to iconic adult xenomorphs, there are face-huggers, soldiers and bosses such as the alien queen.

Other

The game was originally developed as a survival horror in the vein of Resident Evil and its release date was to coincide with the cinematic debut of Alien: Resurrection. At some point, it was decided to restart the development and change the genre into a shooter, as a result of which the final game appeared on the market three years after the movie.
