By Stephany Nunneley

Rebellion has released a multiplayer patch on Steam for the original Aliens vs Predator.

Here’s the rundown on the £2.99/$4.99 title:

• Integrated with Steam Overlay
• Uses Steam name
• Host/Join games via bare-bones in-game lobby browser
• Can invite and join friends and others via the Steam overlay
• Game attempts host migration
• Dedicated servers are not supported or planned

Re-released on the digital distribution service earlier in the month, the classic game has modes and atmosphere similar to the revamp expected on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 February 16.

A demo is also expected.
