A sequel to Alien: Isolation ‘is a daily topic’ at Creative Assembly

The Creative Assembly discusses how it would handle a sequel to Alien: Isolation almost every day, according to lead designer, Greg Napper.

According to Napper, a plot for the sequel “is a daily topic” for the team. ”The plot for a sequel is a daily topic in the studio sometimes,” he told AvPGalaxy. “People have their own ideas for where it should go, our writers have some solid concepts and yes, we do have a great opportunity to continue her story. I personally think that Amanda did not get infected in the hive, as when she wakes, the closest egg remains closed…”

When asked if a sequel would follow the same formula as Alien Isolation, Napper replied, ”I think the action oriented ‘Aliens’ style game is very different from what Isolation is. If we made a sequel I would like to stick to the same terrifying single Alien approach but do more with the environment and interactivity within it.”

Alien: Isolation recently received a free update that added two new difficulty modes to the game: Novice and Nightmare.

“Alien: Isolation might not deliver the scary, intimate experience players expected for its entire running time, but smart design, good pacing, and a ton of gameplay variety more than make up for the lack of chills,” Josh wrote in our review.
