Alien: Isolation sequel teaser trailer

After playing the first one again a year or two ago and being reminded what a miserable and drawn out experience it is I'm good.

I mean it was the best Alien game we've had in years up to that point and I think that blinded people but they could've shaved off 10 hours and it would've been a better game. Horror games dont need to be 30 hours long
 
First game was good but it overstayed it's welcome by quite a bit, the last 3rd of the first game was garbage compared to the excellent start, hope they fix it in a sequel.

Also the outside of that airlock gave off LV426 vibes.

One of my most anticipated games in the coming months. Hopefully we get a trailer and a release day by the Summer Showcases.
 
Holy shit I totally forgot it was Alien Day! Hell yeah. Teaser looks like it takes place in Hadley's Hope? Mmmm. Probably not after the place blew up. Best guess this games takes place after Newt's family discovers the ship and brings home a stray and before Ripley and her pals show up to start shit.

Edit: Would be wild if you actually played AS Newt. I wonder how the general public would react to playing as a defenseless little girl in an Alien game.

It's insane that this masterpiece is still locked at 1080@30 with no way to boost the settings! 😞

It would be cool (but it's OK if they don't do this) to have a small additional mode where you play as a face hugger. Like in Aliens vs. Predator 2. That game was awesome. (RIP Monolith...)

Exploring the surface in the rain? I assume it's going to be a colony of some sort since there are going to be save stations?

Not against this idea at all, but it will be more tricky to design rather than station interiors.

It's a less interesting setting imo, though I get they can't just do the same thing again, still happy there's a sequel though.
 
Even when they first announced it I still didn't want to let myself believe.

But holy fuck here we are. Im praying it ignores the existence of all the trash movies and TV shows made since the first game.

I'd like to see the action dialed up considerably. I'm hoping they're gonna give us more of an "ALIENS" inspired story/gameplay.
I expect nothing but the *ULTIMATE* ALIENS game from Creative Assembly here. They have to top Alien: Isolation.

There are hundreds of Aliens games out there to enjoy, including the recent shooter Aliens: Fireteam Elite.

There is arguably only one worthwhile Alien game.

Let Isolation be what it should be.

Hopeful.

I know when CA did a bunch of lay offs a few years back, some of them were people who worked on the first game including the AI coder for the Xenomorph. Dunno if any of those people got rehired, but it would be nice to hear that the majority of the team are getting another chance at this.
 
So it seems like this will take place on a colony like Hadley's Hope
Aliens:

Now, I wonder if they will go full on action like Aliens. I hope they balance it out, survival horror sections with action sections. It's gonna be a tricky situation because the whole point of the first game is that the alien cannot be killed with the equipment you have.
Will they put you in situations where you lose your weapons every now and then? Are guns scarce and only available at certain parts of the story? Will the first half of the game be "Alien" and the second half "Aliens"?
 
Was seriously considering buying Alien Isolation on Switch (Heard it's a great port) but everyone being negative about it here just killed it off

I couldn't even play an hour of the first one, too scary whereas I don't know how I can play RE games all day without any problems. Dead space no problems. Callisto no issues. Evil Within 1/2 super fun.

I guess I can't do horror where we can't shoot/kill the threat/monster.

I quit Outlast, Alien Isolation and recently Routine due to this. Lol.

Oh I forgot, I quit Alien Dark Descent too, not because it's scary but because it's very tense and stressful.

Basically I can't do survival horror but action horror is fun af.

So glad to see a sequel. The first one was the perfect length, not even a little drawn out, and had amazing variety from start to finish.

Alien Isolation was a perfect horror game with no weak parts at all, in stark contrast to most of the Resident Evil series, of which I'm a gigantic fan of.

I want it more like the 1st one as well, but seeing as the sales were poor and they didn't do a sequel because of it, I'm thinking it's going to have more action.

So I'm keeping my hype in check because of this and also because most of the Isolation design people left CA.
 
This is the best news to come out of this generation and I'm really happy an Isolation sequel is happening. I wonder if we'll see just Aliens or maybe they'll throw some Predators into the mix? Please release on time for the PS6 release.

Played isolation 10 years late and man was Sevastopol BIG, still love the 80s inspired computers, simple plot but the save points needs attention and gave me trouble.

Damn, they probably don't have the resources to overhaul their own engine and it's easier to switch to UE5. But I hope they use it better than other devs make their own customizations if needed. We already have a first person Alien game built in UE5 so I guess... it will look similar to this:

I hope it looks even better than this.
 
Day 1. Hopefully they will make better use of UE5 than a lot of other devs (like using HDR and good performance on a base ps5).
 
Day 1 because Alien fan, but yeah... Isolation really overstays its welcome.

It would be a lot more palatable if it were shorter, or at least had larger variations to its gameplay loop.

15+ hours of hiding and walking on eggshells becomes tedious.

Exactly!!! Bunch of band-wagoners who didn't enjoy Isolation; now want to turn this into a Resident Evil 5/6 type of game-play. No. Isolation was done right. More survival horror and less arcade shooters.
