With less than a month remaining until the release of the co-op shooter Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2, Cold Iron Studios has unveiled details about the Hunter class. The developers showcased a trailer featuring its abilities and team support weapons.
The class's main ability is the Partial Pulse, which can be upgraded to Partial Beam or Cryo-Pulse. The first option deals massive damage to hordes of Xenomorphs, while the second freezes enemies, making them vulnerable to attacks.
The Hunter can also use a Stasis Bolt, which slows down opponents. Its upgrades are "Vlad's Bolt" and "Arc Bolt."
The unique class abilities "No Mercy" and "No Rest" increase damage, but the bonuses only apply when hitting enemy weak points.
The Hunter will receive two signature weapons: the personal railgun BD-03 "Djinn" and the Type 111 directional particle generator. The first is characterized by high accuracy and stability, while the second has perfect accuracy and does not lose damage at range.
Previously, the developers introduced other classes — the Marauder, Specialist, and Technician. Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 will be released on August 25 for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
