Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem is based on the film of the same name and continues the Aliens and Predator series’ mingling. The film’s central premise is followed. Following the events of the first film, a party of predators returns to the homeworld with a red alien, a survivor impregnated with an alien embryo. The ship crashes on Earth in an attempt to kill the creature who possesses the strengths and weaknesses of both species. Facehuggers impregnate a father and son who examine the spaceship, allowing the aliens to continue colonizing the world. When a lone predator scout discovers that the ship has crashed, he flies to Earth to clear it of the intruders.
From a third-person perspective, players control the predator. While humans and aliens battle, his primary mission is to destroy and obliterate all signs of extraterrestrial life. The aliens are the primary foes throughout the game, although humans will also engage the predator when he is spotted. The predator can activate a cloak. However, this consumes energy and must be refilled periodically by returning to standard form. When the cover comes into contact with water, it vanishes. He also has three vision modes (tech, thermal, and alien) to help him better understand his surroundings. Enemies can be locked to make tracking them simpler while they are moving.
The shoulder buttons control the camera, while the analog stick is utilized to move around. In addition to basic wrist attacks, he has extra weaponry, such as a shoulder cannon, hand cannon, and a throwable disc. Before beginning a task, the available weapons can be chosen, and thesehesehese can be updated once missions are completed. He can also zoom in (go into first-person mode) and tag aliens to gain honor points. These can be used to improve weaponry and are also given out when no people are slain. Jumping, busting through walls, climbing, and shaking off aliens when pinned down are all basic movements. A certain amount of evidence must usually be removed before proceeding. The game features branching quest paths with vastly different surroundings. A map can be displayed while playing to depict the surroundings, adversaries, and objectives.
In addition to the main plot, there are skirmish bouts that can be played collaboratively by two players.
