ok, so you guys might've heard about alien: isolation 2, the super anticipated sequel to the 2014 horror game. it's been a while since we got any news about it, but creative assembly and sega just dropped a pretty cryptic teaser video on the alien: isolation youtube channel. i'm talking major chills, guys - the video shows this creepy double door opening up to reveal a ruptured habitat wall with rain pouring in, and right in the middle of it all is one of those dreaded manual save points from the first game.



i mean, if you played the first alien: isolation, you know how terrifying those save points can be. you have to stand there, frozen, while the terminal beeps away, just hoping that the alien isn't nearby, listening in. it's legit one of the most stressful things about the game, and i'm a little worried that they're bringing it back for the sequel. but at the same time, it's kind of awesome - it means we can expect more of that stealthy, hide-from-the-alien gameplay that made the first game so great.



so, from what we can gather from the teaser, it looks like alien: isolation 2 is going to be set on a planet, which is a bit of a departure from the first game's space station setting. i'm not sure how i feel about this, to be honest - i loved the claustrophobic feeling of being trapped on a ship with a deadly alien, and i'm worried that a planet setting might make the game feel too open or action-oriented. but hey, we'll just have to wait and see, right?



it's also been confirmed that the game will be running on unreal engine 5, which is pretty cool,Read more: Full article on www.rockpapershotgun.com
