Now here is a pleasant surprise. Creative Assembly has just announced they’re working on a sequel to one of the best Alien games ever, Alien Isolation. This is something Alien fans have been asking for over the years. And now, after 10 long years, we’re finally getting a new survival horror Alien game. At last.

Here is the official announcement for the sequel to Alien: Isolation.

Since the game is in early development stage, you should not be expecting any news, screenshots or trailers for it. My guess is that we might get something in late 2025 or in 2026. Still, the fact that we’re getting a new Alien: Isolation game is great news.

Alien: Isolation used the Cathode Engine. Thus, I’m curious to see whether CA will still be using it. That engine was only used in Alien: Isolation. So, will CA stick with it or will they ditch it for UE5 like most devs do these days? We can also assume that the game will target both next-gen and current-gen platforms.

Speaking of Alien Isolation, there are some cool mods that you can download for it. For instance, this mod improves the AI of the Xenomorph. Then we have this mod that adds Temporal Anti-Aliasing (TAA). You can also find a VR Mod to download.

You can also use a mod to remove The Alien completely, allowing you to explore The Sevastopol freely. On the other hand, there’s a mod that adds an Ultra Nightmare Difficulty Setting. And lastly, you can download a mod that adds multiple xenomorphs to the game.

Stay tuned for more!
