Alien: Covenant - 12 Big Questions After The New Trailer 

4. How Do Neomorphs Compare To Xenos?

We already knew about the Neomorphs before this trailer, but it gives us our best look yet at how exactly they're formed, and more pertinently what they look like.

There are some similarities with the Xenomorph in basic structure, but they're a pale white colour, almost translucent, and have a long tail.

Appearances wise, then, they're clearly different to Xenomorphs, but how do they compare otherwise? Will they be as intelligent or as fearsome? They do some damage in the trailer, but the sense is they may still play second fiddle to the Xenos. Will the alien creatures work together, or might we even see them fight each other?
