Fight Aliens Using Fantastical Weapons

Battle the alien menace using an astounding arsenal of classic sci-fi weapons. Buy yourself some time with a stasis grenade, toss a shield grenade to provide instant cover while you pop off a heal, and bring your friends back to life using the Respawner. Or throw caution to the wind and burn friend and foe alike with the laser rifle.

Ever want to kill everything all at once!?!?  Enable community weapons and include some of the more outlandish weapons from the workshop! Play As The Aliens in PVP Versus Mode!

PVP comes to The Anacrusis! The goals are simple, Survivors need to reach the end of the level and the Aliens must keep them from their goal. Take control of the Brute, Flasher, Grabber, Gooper, and Spawner and keep your friends from escaping the level. Tuned for intense co-op PVP play with teams of 2, 3, or 4 players, or take on the bots in a private match to practice playing the aliens.
