With the failure of Hadley's Hope, Weyland-Yutani has suffered a devastating defeat. Yet there's a reason the company rose to the top, and remote station RB-323 abruptly becomes their greatest hope for weaponising the Aliens.

Alien: The Cold Forge promises a thrilling continuation of the saga, blending corporate intrigue with science fiction's most terrifying creatures.
