Is 'Aliens Versus Predator' Canon?

Is ‘Aliens Versus Predator’ Canon?

With Prey causing a storm with fans and critics alike, many film sites are publishing lists of “Predator” movies along the line of which is the best or worst of the film series. A common thing with these lists is the inclusion of the two AVP (Aliens Versus Predator) movies which has caused people to argue in the comment sections of those articles whether or not the films are or are not canon to both the “Alien” and “Predator” franchises. I already knew the answer to this like many other fans of the two film series. The short answer to the question of whether is AVP canon or not is a resounding, NO. Aliens Versus Predator is set in its own universe. As far as many fans of the AVP franchise know, the two alien species have been kicking the ever-loving crap out of one another for eons according to the comics, books, and video games that have been made
