Alien vs. Predator 2 2D: Requiem is a 2007 side-scrolling action game for Java-enabled mobile phones, developed and published by Superscape as a follow-up to their earlier mobile Alien vs. Predator title. It adapts the film Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem, but shifts the action to a high-tech research complex more in line with the era of Aliens, with Colonial Marines acting as the primary human opposition.
The game lets you play as either an Alien or a Predator in separate campaigns, each with its own objectives, abilities and power-ups. Short, mission-based levels and straightforward controls make it a pick-up-and-play mobile experience focused on fast action, combo kills and managing limited health and resources as you carve your way through the facility.
The core structure is a 2D side-scroller: you move through corridors and industrial arenas, fighting Marines and automated defenses while completing simple objectives. Before starting, you choose between two play styles: the Alien or the Predator.
As the Alien, the aim is to expand the hive and spread the infestation. You slash enemies with claws in close combat and use an acid spit for ranged attacks. A rage meter fills with every kill and can be boosted further by collecting scattered Eggs, powering up your assaults; you can also feed on corpses to restore health.
As the Predator, your mission is to exterminate the Xenomorphs and erase evidence of their presence. Wristblades provide your main melee damage, backed up by twin shoulder plasma casters that can thin out distant targets. Armor pickups scattered across the levels refill your health, and special upgrades like temporary cloaking give you extra survivability and tactical options as the enemy count escalates.
Both characters can grab specific power-ups – such as acidic enhancements to the Alien’s claws or improved Predator cloaking and armor – that help you survive tougher firefights and complete objectives inside the facility.
Although it takes its name and basic premise from Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem, the game’s story plays out far from Gunnison, Colorado. Instead, the action unfolds inside a secret off-world installation where humans are experimenting with Xenomorphs under the watch of Colonial Marines.
In the Alien campaign, you turn the base into a breeding ground – breaking containment, overrunning security teams and turning the complex into a growing hive. In the Predator campaign, you arrive to stamp out the infestation, hunting both Marines and Aliens and wiping away any trace of their existence. There are no long cutscenes or dialogue trees; the narrative is delivered through mission objectives, escalating enemy presence and the visual transformation of the facility as you progress.
