The Alien tabletop RPG currently comprises вЂCinematicвЂ™ scenarios - effectively one-shots - like first adventure Chariots of Fire, and a campaign mode, which allows potential вЂGame MothersвЂ™ to take more of a sandbox approach. Both are planned for launch at Gen Con next year.

These include a second Cinematic-style scenario called Destroyer of Worlds and a вЂњmeatyвЂќ campaign sourcebook for Colonial Marines. The upcoming Alien tabletop RPG is already touted for not one, but two new supplements next year.
