Insider Tom Henderson strikes again with information on Alien Isolation 2 and the horror franchise’s video game future in the years to come.
Aga inst all odds, Alien Isolation 2 might see the light of day and it would be well accompanied.
Alien Isolation 2 and another AAA game in development?
Carving a place for himself among trusted insiders, Tom Henderson dropped two little bombshells for fans of alien and horror games. On his side insider gaming, he claims that a big new Alien game is in development. Even more surprising is that the release is expected in late 2023.
He hasn’t heard from the studio behind this unannounced project, but the budget for this title would be that of an AAA. A production specially designed for the new generation of consoles PS5 and Xbox Series X|S – and undoubtedly the PC – and would be inspired by licenses as iconic as Dead Space or Resident Evil.
The other piece of information that has at least two feathers down in this letter is that Alien Isolation 2 is in development or about to be submitted to a publisher. It would then be a real reversal of the situation, as SEGA had turned down a sequel even though the first installment sold more than 2.1 million copies. An incredible survival horror that shone with its deep respect for Ridley Scott’s alien.
And Creative Assembly, the developers of Alien Isolation, in all of this? They didn’t want to comment on these hallway noises.
