Acheron is an upcoming modification for Battlefield 2142. It aims to offer the players the ultimate Colonial Marines experience (within the limits of the Refractor engine).
"When tasked with creating a main theme for Acheron, I originally set out to re-create the scores of the films exactly. However, this proved to be rather challenging, so instead, I decided to come up with something original. The way I saw it, Acheron has its own place within the Aliens universe, although not official canon, and so I felt it was deserving of its own unique soundtrack. I tried to stick as close to the feel of the Alien franchise, hence the use of elements of the Alien: Covenant OST that you might recognise. After quite few attempts, this is what I came up with. It captures the tension as well as the raw emotion explored within the franchise. The main theme of Alien is survival, or at least thats what I take from it, and I think this conveys that quite well."

Here's the first piece of the soundtrack for Acheron. Composed and performed by our amazing music creator NinjaTheCat.
I like it. It's power lies in it's calmness.
