Alien Vs Predator Comes To Raid

RAID: Shadow Legends is back with another massive crossover event—and this one feels right at home in the brutal, creature-infested world of Teleria. After the previous Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, RAID has now unleashed something darker and grittier.

Alien vs Predator has officially joined RAID: Shadow Legends!

Two iconic sci-fi titans, the Xenomorph and the Predator, are landing in the game as fully playable Legendary Champions, complete with unique mechanics, animations, and a special event structure that gives players multiple ways to earn them.

And the best part?
One of them is completely free.
Let's break down everything coming in this limited-time crossover.

• Duration: November 24th, 2025 – February 24th, 2026
• Xenomorph Loyalty Program: Log in for 14 days to unlock Xenomorph. Players can earn his Perfect Soul by participating in different activities.
• Predator will be available through a paid champion pass. The pass opens on 24th November 2025, with the final enrollment date being 23rd January 2026.

New Debuff: Infest (Xenomorph)

Xenomorph introduces the brand-new Infest debuff.

Whenever an enemy under an Infest debuff dies, deals pure damage to all other alive enemies. This pure damage is equal to 50% of the enemy's MAX HP who died while under the Infest debuff. This pure damage cannot be critical. The pure damage dealt upon killing a Boss or their minions cannot exceed more than 1% of their MAX HP.

New Debuff: Hunter's Gaze (Predator)

Predator introduces the brand-new Hunter's Gaze debuff.

Damage dealt to a Champion under the Hunter's Gaze debuff cannot be decreased, blocked, redirected or transferred. This applies only to damage dealt directly by skills, and not from debuffs, passives, Masteries or Blessings. Damage dealt to a Champion under the Hunter's Gaze debuff will ignore Unkillable,  Block Damage, Increase DEF, Strengthen, Ally Protection, Veil, Perfect Veil and Shield buffs. Champions can still evade damage while under the Hunter's Gaze Debuff.

For many players, Alien vs Predator feels like a return to form. It fits the world and the champions look incredible. The mechanics are fresh and Xenomorph is fully free-to-play.

The Predator has interesting PvP potential, but whether the Predator is worth the cost will depend on numbers and live performance. The kits are promising though.
