Do you like science fiction and first-person action video games? Undoubtedly then, Alien Arena can become one of your favorites, and we are in the presence of a title that has taken the best of Unreal Tournament and Quake III to offer us a very well achieved multiplayer entertainment system, which will challenge you to beat all kinds of rivals in more than 35 levels or scenarios.

As we said, in this case, you have to compete with many people worldwide, taking advantage of your Internet connection in a first-person action title set in outer space, as it could not be otherwise. In this context, your mission is to destroy all the aliens that pass near your position, although you must be careful because they will want to do the same with you.

What if I don't have an Internet connection or it's not too stable? In that case, you don't have to worry because you will also be able to enjoy Alien Arena, in this case facing the different bots that are part of the game. The developers have generated a system of characters that can attack you and defend themselves, with the particularity that they are controlled by artificial intelligence and not by other people. This is an excellent solution for those players who do not have a reliable Internet connection. Many players even use this mode as training for their battles.

The number of game modes is undoubtedly another of the strong points that we can mention about Alien Arena, taking into account that there are up to five in total, all of them multiplayer, and that we can select the ones that best adapt to our style of play. The limit of players that can be part of a battle is up to 32 gamers simultaneously.

In the same way, we find that our characters in Alien Arena have an arsenal of different weapons from which you can choose at any time, from the simplest, as can be a laser beam, to other much more advanced, which may be related, for example to different types of missile launchers. Which weapon do we recommend? The most potent weapon in the game: is the alien volatilizer.

Something similar happens when selecting a character with which we will face the adventure and perform all the missions that appear. This is because there are more than ten options, among which we will have to look for the one that best suits our needs. As usually happens in this type of game, the characteristics of the characters also vary, so at one point, you will consider that it is better to choose one and, in another, a different one.

The lovely thing, in this case, is that we can select either a human or an alien character, so in these situations, our specific missions will be modified since not all characters have the same quests. This also helps to ensure that the fun never runs out because if we get tired of one type of task, we can immediately move on to the opposite, which multiplies our possibilities.

For those gamers who have become fanatics of Alien Arena's entertainment, you have to bear in mind that you will fight to improve all your statistics and scores, and when you have done enough merit, you will enter the game's lists. These lists gather the best players from all over the world, so you can be sure that if at some point you appear there, it is because you have done significant merits to achieve it.

As for the graphics of Alien Arena, and concerning the games on which it is based, we have to say that the engine of this one undoubtedly shows some exciting improvements, a general optimization in terms of scenarios, animations, textures, and of course regarding the most important of the title, which after all are both the characters and the weapons that we can use to destroy the enemies.

Finally, we also found it interesting that Alien Arena has such a substantial community of members that we have always found players available to play a few games in all our tests with the game. This is a considerable advantage compared to other titles that sometimes keep us waiting too long to have fun.

Even if you like to chat with your friends and colleagues while you are entertained, keep in mind that this game has an IRC client for chatting between gamers, so you can use it whenever you want.

In summary, we can say that Alien Arena is one of the best online multiplayer action video games available for computers, which hardly consumes any system resources and can be enjoyed for free.
