Aliens versus Predator 2: Primal Hunt
An expansion for Aliens versus Predator 2
Aliens Versus Predator 2: Primal Hunt chronicles the initial breach leading up to the events in Aliens Versus Predator 2, specifically, the destruction of Research Pod 5. The story takes place across nine total mission, with three per species (Predator, Predalien, and Corporate). Each of the three playable characters is out to retrieve a mysterious artifact with the power to confuse and repel the Aliens. New features in the game include the ability to play as a tougher Predator-Alien hybrid in single and multiplayer, a new "energy flechette" weapon for the Predator, and a new 360-degree motion tracker and deployable sentry guns for the humans. Multiplayer includes four new Deathmatch maps and the ability for the Predator to activate a short range self-destruct bomb when nearly defeated. A copy of the original Aliens Versus Predator 2 is required to play Aliens Versus Predator 2: Primal Hunt.

This time we have three new characters. Ancient Predator has even more new weapons, but they are mostly useless. Dunya is a member of a group of mercenaries called the Iron Bears, who are the bad guys in the main game's story. She also has new weapons available in addition to what was in the main game. The game also provides a unique opportunity to take on the role of Predalien - a monstrous hybrid of an Alien and a Predator with its own advantages and disadvantages.
New game locations are now available for us to explore. The gameplay is sometimes too long and consists of confronting huge waves of Aliens. It's often a good idea to just ignore the enemies and run headlong from point A to point B. But overall, the expansion turned out to be good and quite interesting.
