Midway's 2005 first-person shooter turns the secret base into a hotbed of Grey aliens, an alien virus and a recovered-craft conspiracy — with voice work by David Duchovny and Marilyn Manson.

*Area 51* is Midway's 2005 first-person shooter set inside the notorious secret base, rebuilt from a 1995 arcade light-gun original[1]. You play Ethan Cole, a hazmat operative who is infected by an alien pathogen after a containment breach and must survive between mutating creatures and a military bent on burying the truth. The game serves up the whole popular UFO mythology at once: almond-eyed Greys, reverse-engineered saucers, and a cover-up traced back to Roswell in 1947. It deliberately courts an *X-Files* mood — even casting that show's star, David Duchovny, as the lead[1] — and hardens the urban legend of "Area 51 as alien headquarters" into a big-budget action title.
