The video begins with one of the members of a space vessel that is set to crash on Earth. While making his report inside a locked control room, he abandoned a female crewmate outside to fend for herself against a Xenomorph. The prequel takes place two years before the events of Ridley Scott’s Sigourney Weaver-led 1979 movie Alien.
