This is probably the most common Xenomorph type and it is "produced" in large numbers. Otherwise, it will try to hide until fully grown. It is still very aggressive and can attack if provoked. In a few hours, it will shed its skin and grow rapidly. It has a small size, no limbs (or very short limbs) and light skin. The chestburster is an infant Xenomorph who is freshly born from a host by biting through the ribcage. It also has a flipper-like legs and darker skin giving it an aquatic presence.
In addition, the royal facehugger (also known as a Super Facehugger) can contain a Xenomorph warrior embryo designated to protect the Queen. The queen embryo takes a longer time to hatch than a regular one. This special facehugger is bigger than the regular one and contains a queen embryo. It will come off and die after successfully implanting the embryo. It will wrap its fingers around the victim's face and tail around the neck.įacehuggers are almost impossible to remove and will kill the victim in the process. It doesn't matter if it's a human, an animal, a Predator or even an Space Jockey. The next stage in the Xenomorph lifecycle, this crab-like creature will latch on to the nearest host. They come in different sizes and the Aliens can use them as traps in chokepoints. Supposedly, it detects movement, vibrations in the ground and even your scent to activate the facehugger inside.Įggs can survive for thousands of years and probably bleed acid if hurt. The egg (also known as the Ovomorph) is where the Xenomorph evolution begins.įeatured in all Alien movies (except Prometheus) this leathery orb will cause big trouble if you get too close. Overall, there are about a dozen different Xenomorphs from the movies and more than fifty from the expanded universe. The Xenomorph appearances and behavior vary based on the type of the host but also in the placement of the creatures in the Alien lifecycle.Īs a bonus, some better-known types from the games and comic books are included which often show up in a Xenomorph types chart or Xenomorph wiki. Here is an overview of all Xenomorph types from the Alien movies, including the facehugger, chestburster, warrior, and Queen Xenomorph variants.
