Aliens Versus Predator focuses on three separate species: the Colonial Marines, the Aliens and the Predators. Each species is playable and offers significantly different strengths, weapons, physical abilities and objectives. Players will also find that each species "sees" the world differently.

Aliens Versus Predator contains over 40 different environmental levels including spaceships, alien temples and underground caverns. Furthermore, all environments in the game can be deformed. A flamethrower will leave a thick black scorch on any surface you blast while the pulse rifle leaves holes in the walls. Throw a grenade in the water and watch the splash. Don't like that light? Shoot it out and plunge the corridor into inky black darkness.

For the multi-player enthusiast, Aliens Versus Predator offers ten multi-player modes including Species War, Co-Op, Deathmatch, Tag and more. In single-play mode, enemies stalk you from their randomized positions, sometimes fleeing to acquire more assistance or using all their racial assets to thwart you.

For your aural pleasure, the CD comes with a full complement of cinematic sounds and support for Creative Labs' Environmental Audio Extensions through the SoundBlaster Live! card.
