The game the Alien series has always deserved. A deep, fun stealth game set in an evocatively realised sci-fi world.
Alien: Isolation is a single-player horror stealth game, set in the Alien franchise universe, where you play as Amanda Ripley, navigating through a volatile world filled with panic and an unpredictable Alien. The game features beautiful visuals, a good plot, and a survival mode called Survivor, where you must escape from a specially designed map while being hunted by the Alien, with online leaderboards to add a competitive element.

Critic Reviews
Alien: Isolation (PS4) Review
Whatever the cause, Aliens: Colonial Marines was a huge disappointment to Alien fans.

To sum it up in a handful of words, the entire game is about an unfair, unwinnable boss fight that you’re doing your best to avoid. It’s as difficult and frustrating as an Alien game should be. It’s not a ride in the park and you’re not an action hero. You will die a lot and you’ll like it, because almost every time, it will be due to a mistake you made. It’s also surprisingly well put together, from the art direction to the retro-futuristic details like wall-mounted phones and CRT computers, complete with the industrial architectural vibe of the space station, all working in tandem to evoke a certain lo-fi aesthetic that will please fans of the first Alien film. Unfortunately, Alien: Isolation also has some pitfalls, from trying to be a close cousin of regular first-person shooters to drawing things on and losing its pace a handful of times. The alien, the ultimate enemy, is introduced a little too early, and for a part of the game, it becomes inconsequential, with your entire journey feeling a bit tedious at times, especially when you’re backtracking, searching for the one door or corridor that you missed earlier or that you can now finally open. However, it is one of the best survival-horror games ever created, rewarding stealth, patience, and playing smartly, and punishing rash decisions with a swift death. It’s laden with tense moments and it’s a gorgeous visual journey, with a pretty good narrative and a lot of pleasant surprises for fans of the Alien franchise.
