Rumor: Creative Assembly might make another Alien game, maybe

So Sega decided against making Alien Isolation 2 because the first game didn't sell well enough.

The rumor says they're considering making another Alien game, presumably dependent on if Microsoft wants Halo Wars 3.

However, another Alien game doesn't necessarily imply Alien Isolation 2.

To the contrary, given Sega didn't want to make Alien Isolation 2 in the first place, starting it now targeting cross-gen PS4/PS5 or whatever seems even more improbable.

I think you would be most likely to see a different game with the Alien IP were this to happen.
 
Woah, Alien: Isolation is one of my favourite horror games and I'd absolutely love another one.

Even if it's an action orientated one I'd still trust Creative Assembly.

Imagine them taking a swing at a Aliens game. playing as a Colonial Marine against multiple xenos like the one in the first game. Multiple Tough nemesis style enemies instead of one invulnerable nemesis style enemy.

FUUUUUCK.

That would be awesome but I think I would still rather have another Alien game versus Aliens.

The first game is perfect, a challenging survival Horror themed Thief 2 in the alien verse that scott created with a bunch of other people like Roger Cobb, Giger, etc.

No garbage, lengthy 15-20 hour campaign.

Those super engineering androids in the core can get fucked though.

If they made a sequel to Isolation that was half as long I would be all over it. That game was so good until it started to lose steam partway.

This makes no sense. I can't see Sony throwing the kind of money needed to justify going all in on PSVR at the expense of a multi platform experience for all like the last one.

PSVR friendly like RE7? Sure

Intended it to mean like Resident Evil 7 -- it's now reflected in the article.

I'm just down for whatever CA does with the license, they've earned my trust from Alien: Isolation and it seems with Halo Wars 2 that this team is good at making games in general.

I would love this... the atmosphere in Alien: Isolation was amazing! Wonder what a sequel would be called, though (Aliens: Desolation?)

Outside of the Droid filled portion 3/4th of the way through, Isolation was an amazing experience. I really hope they get to make a sequel.

I hope they will also make a Terminator 1 game with that engine. Where the Terminator chases you in a 80s setting of the first Terminator movie, while you are playing with a helpless Sarah Connor.

Isolation is one of my favourite games of this generation so I hope to God that there is truth to this.

I'd love to see their Aliens to the original Alien.

Man, I really don't want that. Alien: Isolation distancing itself entirely from Cameron's Aliens was what made it special. It felt like a gift from an alternate dimension where the Alien "mythology" was never diluted by its sequels. It's even more precious now that Ridley Scott became so dedicated to turning it into the schlockiest cinematic universe.

I hope they do, Alien Isolation is the best Alien game since the original AVP game.

I just hope they stick with what they did so well, the authentic style of Alien and the detail they put into it.

Alien: Isolation was just an utterly fantastic game, and a near perfect adaption of the experience of the original movie in video game form. It's also my favorite licensed/movie game ever pretty much, and just an excellent all around Survival Horror game. It's easily one of the most tense and frightening games I've ever played. I realize I'm just heaping effusive praise on A:I, but I mean, the game deserves it. I also think a sequel is justified so that
Amanda's story can be properly wrapped up. Isolation's ending was just so shitty, lol
. Anyway, yeah, a sequel needs to happen, so I really hope this rumor is true
