    Alien Trilogy (エイリアントリロジー) is a first person shooter created by Probe based on the Alien franchise. Originally set to be released on the Sega 32X[6][7][8], development was moved to more capable platforms, before being released on the Sega Saturn, PlayStation and IBM PC in 1996.

    Gameplay

    The game is divided into three sections, each based loose interpretations of the first three Alien films; Alien (1979), Aliens (1986) and Alien 3 (1992).

    Reportedly Alien Trilogy utilises only one of the Saturn's SH-2 processors[9].
