In July 2010, Valve introduced a freeware multiplayer top-down shooter video game where players must eliminate waves of aliens.

This year, Valve releases the newest video game in the series titled Alien Swarm: Reactive Drop. Developed by Reactive Drop Team, the game will extend the original Alien Swarm, introducing new maps, aliens, game modes, and guns. It will also feature a Steam Workshop support.

The game will thrust players into an epic bug hunt, introducing a unique gameplay that blends co-op play and squad-level tactics. Together with your friends, form a squad of four up to eight players, and plan your attack against the aliens using its top-down perspective. You can also use an unlockable arsenal of weapons that include countless loadout configurations that fight against a wide variety of aliens.

Alien Swarm: Reactive Drop will feature new co-operative campaigns, as well as challenges. It will also allow modifications similar to Left 4 Dead 2. Aside from that, players can now join in PVP battles such as Deathmatch, Gun Game, Instagib, and team Deathmatch. It will also feature the single-player mode where players can play with improved bots on all the official maps.

And with new aliens comes new weapons. Alien Swarm: Reactive Drop will feature new and advanced guns to combat the enemies including the Desert Eagle, Devastator, Combat Rifle, and much more.
