Sega and Twentieth Century Fox have teamed up once again to produce a game based on the Alien franchise – remember how well the last one went<\/a>?<\/p>\n

Alien: Isolation will be a first-person survival horror focussing on “capturing the horror and tension evoked by Ridley Scott\u2019s 1979 classic film,” said Sega.<\/p>\n

The game will be developed by Creative Assembly (famous for its Total War titles) and is due for release in late 2014 on PS4, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360, Windows PC.<\/p>\n

The story goes:<\/p>\n

On a decommissioned trading station in the fringes of space, fear and panic have gripped the inhabitants. Players find themselves in an atmosphere of constant dread and mortal danger as an unpredictable, ruthless Xenomorph is stalking and killing deep in the shadows. Underpowered and underprepared, you must scavenge resources, improvise solutions and use your wits, not just to succeed in your mission, but to simply stay alive.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“In Alien: Isolation, we have taken the series back to the roots of Ridley Scott\u2019s 1979 movie, the original survival horror,” said Alistair Hope, Creative Lead at Creative Assembly. “Our Alien is a truly terrifying creature, as intelligent as he is hostile, relentless, brutal and unstoppable. This is the Alien game fans of the series have always wanted.”<\/p>\n

Throughout 2014, Twentieth Century Fox Consumer Products will be celebrating the 35th anniversary of the Aliens franchise by releasing commemorative and fan-favorite products.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
