Alien Isolation 2 Announcement
The Developer posted on X/Twitter the announcement of the game in the horror classic’s 10th anniversary. Creative director of the game, Al Hope, penned a note to the fans thanking them for their constant support and enthusiasm for the game. Alien Isolation was released in 2014 with a mostly positive reception from the fans but couldn’t become a huge financial success due to the game targeting niche horror audiences across the world.
Hope announced that the Sequel to the classic is under development and still in the early stages. Al Hope said the development team would share more details “when we’re ready.” Creative Assembly is now looking forward to developing the long-awaited title, as core fans of the game were always eager for an announcement or sequel to the second iteration of Alien Isolation.
What we know so far
Creative Assembly has yet to reveal any release window, Platform, or even the title for the game, as it is still in the early stages of development. What is confirmed so far is that Al Hope, the creative director for the first game, will return to direct the sequel in all its glory along with the original team who worked on the first game.
At the moment, the internet is abuzz with announcements and genuine excitement from Alien Isolation fans and horror fans alike, many of whom have called for a sequel ever since the first game came out in 2014. Sega, the owner of the IP of Alien, wasn’t satisfied with the sales of the title to greenlight another entry into the series.
