Types Of Xenos
There are many types of Xenos in N.O.V.A Legacy,namely Raiders,Drones,Invaders,Smashers,Corrupted and the Devestator.

Raiders
Xenos in red armor wielding a firearm that fires bullets(?). Despite being easy to handle and posing not much of a threat,they are very annoying as they tend to attack in large groups. They are also the most intelligent type of Xenos in the game,seeing as to how they will even try to evade attacks from the player by rolling away or running away from bombs. As aforementioned however,they are easy to handle and have a very weak close range Melee attack.

Invaders
Large,black,bipedal Xenos which have heads radiating with plasma. These Xenos show up in twos or threes and have quite remarkable resistance against attacks from the player. They have a wide range plasma attack which makes it hard for players to close in and attack. They also have very damaging melee attacks,and do not hide like Raiders. However,a player who has mastered the game controls can make it hard for these Xenos to attack. They are not as accurate as Raiders or any agile as them.

Drones
Simple drones who will remain in one position while firing barely accurate shots towards players. They make no efforts to evade attacks,and have very poor resistance,so much so that even a melee attack is enough to down any one of them. However,they appear in very large groups - even up to six at a given time.

Smashers
Large,tank like Xenos who unlike most other Xenos,do not use firepower. Instead,these large Xenos use a large club which they will repetitively toss in the player's direction. Though the club is easy to evade,it deals very high damage should it hit. Before tossing a club again,they will relentlessly charge towards the player and deal very high damage. Like Invaders,they will not recoil or be slowed down by any attack, even from RPGs. However,they are very slow and not that intelligent despite their high resistance against attacks. They won't hesitate to even attack thin air,which can be used to the player's advantage.

Corrupted
Corrupted N.O.V.A Marines who serve under the Xenos. Not much is known about their backgrounds. Their behavior doesn't have many differences with that of the Raider,having low defense factors,always ready to evade,being quite intelligent,and have very high agility. However,unlike the Raider, Corrupted stand openly in the line of fire,but still consider dodging an option. Players should be able to quite easily distort their attack patterns by moving around and changing their range,from close to far.

Devestator
One of the largest Xenos in the game. This Xeno shares many similarities with the Smasher,and like it,it doesn't appear in groups. It is rather "fat",and unlike normal Xenos,it teleports instead of walking. This makes it a very dangerous enemy,since it can easily access the farthest of areas and attack the player at said area. It fires large and strong plasma fireballs which can finish players in one mere hit. It also takes several attacks to down this monster as well. Despite all these benefits however, it takes long for it to make a move and so,players get many windows of opportunities to attack as brutally as they can before the monster decides on its next attack.

All these are the various types of Xenos encountered in N.O.V.A￼ Legacy.

Trivia
-All Xeno variants have a giant boss version. The coloration of the uniform/armor of these bosses is similar to the armor design used in Shadow Missions.

-Raiders and Corrupted have skins available for players to use.

-Killing 100 types of each Xeno in the game will give the player a specific weapon color design. The color matches the Xeno killed:

Red for killing 100 Raiders. Based off of their armor.

Blue for killing 100 Invaders.

Orange for killing 100 Smashers. Based off of their armor color too.

Purple for killing 100 Corrupted. Based off their armor.

-These Xenos use Power Crystals to teleport.
