Set two years before the events of 1997's Alien, the new series takes viewers to the year 2120. Planet Earth from this era has recorded drastic changes as human beings coexist with futuristic entities such as cyborgs and synthetics. Five corporations, namely Prodigy, Lynch, Dynamic, Weylan-Yutani, and Threshold, have taken control of Earth's governance in the future.

Amid this rapidly advancing system, the hybrids, humanoid robots with consciousness like humans, become a pivotal creation by Prodigy's CEO. Wendy, one of the first hybrids created, emerges as a prominent part of the new age world.

Leading her group of trained soldiers, Wendy goes about checking the USCSS Maginot research vessel that crashed in their Prodigy city one day. However, the mission becomes the start of an extremely dangerous encounter as they find that five of the deadliest alien life forms, including the legendary Xenomorph, have entered their space through the crash.

The series follows Wendy, her team, and other inhabitants' experiences with these aliens as they wreak havoc beyond their imagination.
