Creative Assembly has confirmed it is developing a sequel to ‘Alien: Isolation’.

The survival-horror game was beloved by fans when it launched in 2014, and now the title’s director Alistair Hope has revealed the studio is currently working on a follow-up in celebration of the original game turning 10 years old.

On X, Hope wrote: “On the 10th anniversary, it seems only fitting to let you know that we have heard your distress calls loud and clear.

“Today, I’m delighted to confirm, on behalf of the team, that a sequel to ‘Alien: Isolation’ is in early development. We look forward to sharing more details with you when we’re ready.”

The first title – which is set 15 years the events of the 1979 original movie – follows Ellen Ripley’s daughter Amanda in a desperate battle for survival aboard a Xenomorph-infested space station while she searches for answers about her mother’s mysterious disappearance.

Looking back at the first game, Hope thanked fans for their “boundless enthusiasm, excitement, screams and steel courage”, and said the title had been the developers’ “dream project”.

He continued: “Whether you’re a nightmare mode veteran or stepping into Amanda Ripley’s shoes for that thrilling first attempt (good luck!), we wanted to express our deep gratitude.

“It was a dream project brought to life by a brilliant team, and the reception you have given it over the years is extraordinary.”
