My tits are jacked.

 

[BennyBlanco]

Cautiously hyped but isn't that dev team dead?

 

[Revolutionary]

 

[OmegaSupreme]

It'd be nice if these sequels came quicker than a decade. I'm not Benjamin Button over here.

 

[GinSama]

Gonna be honest this news made me smile, really.

Creative Assembly are still around

 

[Lions Gate]

I'm literally crying, thank u SEGA

 

[Generic]

The character in this game moves at extremely slow speed, it's painful.

 

[DragoonKain]

Yeaaaaaah. Loved that game.

 

[SJRB]

I still can't believe they told these devs to make a GaaS looter shooter instead of an Alien Isolation sequel, only for them to pull the plug on the whole thing before it was even out the door.

A literal decade wasted.

 

[MagiusNecros]

As long as it isn't VR only.

 

[RetroGamingUK]

Hope they do a better job with character facial animations

 

[clarky]

Fuck this, I was hoping for a remake.

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

In the meantime a patch/re-release for the first game on PS5 would be cool, give me that 4K 60fps.

 

[nial]

No fucking way.

 

[Danteyke223]

Hyneas bombing so badly that they are forced to fix Warhammer 3 with consistent patches and make an Alien Isolation sequel. We are living in the best timeline.

 

[Gonzito]

One of the best survival horrors get finally the sequel we deserve. YES!

 

[RagnarokIV]

Fake, singed by AI at the end. Seems to be some sort of "Hope" language model they've used.

 

[adamsapple]

IGN, do not let Ryan McCaffrey review this.

 

[Imtjnotu]

it only took them ten years.............

 

[Kacho]

Well hell yeah. Guess the game sold well enough over the years to convince Sega it's worth it.

Yeah a remaster on modern consoles with everything at ultra and 4k/60fps and a PSVR2 version is all I'm asking.

Hey, it could have been worse... they could have launched and then shut down 12 days later.

...the game director's name is Alistair Hope.

 

[Represent.]

Would you look at that. They actually had the sense and the balls to make a SEQUEL instead of a shameless remake/remaster.

Good on them

Also, you can thank ALIEN:ROMULUS for this getting greenlit. That movies box office success has revitalized the entire franchise.

[diffusionx]

Same people that made Hyenas? The studio that made Alien Isolation doesn't exist anymore, even if the name on the building is the same.

 

[Mr Reasonable]

So much joy!

Excellent news.

 

[Just_one]

 

[N0S]

I dont know if they can pull it off again. Watch it be some UE5 jank with terrible AI. Best call Bloober for assistance.

 

[keefged4]

there is a god after all

IGN 5/10 "doesn't live up to the original."

 

[Garibaldi]

Great news. Hope they nail it like they did with the original.

 

[tTHANOSs]

I would rather just take a remaster of the game instead. Even though the game had issues I just don't see how a sequel of it can be just as good as the original.

 

[thekillergreece]

I'm surprised it's in development given most designer team had already left from the original Alien's team. Hopefully it'll be good!

 

[Edgelord79]

*crosses fingers*

Please don't screw this up. Please don't screw this up. Please don't screw this up.

Come on dawg.

We've had enough remasters this shitty gen. New games

This probably puts me in the minority, and I say this as someone who absolutely loves Alien Isolation, but I'm really not bothered about a sequel. The first one did everything I wanted to, and did it brilliantly. Sure, I will almost certainly buy the follow-up when it comes out, but it doesn't strike me as a game that really needs a sequel.

A sequel doesn't necessarily mean another Amanda Ripley story, it could be a different character in a different scenario.

 

[firegamer273]

W news !!!

 

[Shadowstar39]

For real. Its like when Valve announced a new half-life episode only to find out it was vr only. . And I have the headset, I just can't play for more than 15 minutes without motion sickness and uncomfortableness. VR is dead to me until it's easier for people with glasses and lighter.

That being said, any cool single player game or horror game is welcome. (this better be single player and not some dead by daylight/Friday the 13th survival multiplayer shit, play as the alien).

 

[cyberheater]

Please do a VR version or use UE5 so it can be modded for VR.
