Outsmart the perfect hunter by making perilous choices. The terror of Alien is brought to life in ‘Alien: Blackout.’ Try to stay alive while trapped aboard a crippled Weyland-Yutani space station carrying a deadly Xenomorph as it tirelessly hunts you and the crew. The game’s official description is as follows: In Blackout, you’ll be tasked with guiding AI crewmates to safety whilst also attempting to avoid the Xenomorph. Just like the last time, players will have to avoid encounters with the titular Alien, but this time you’ll be playing on mobile. Instead, the sequel to one of gaming’s best horror titles is going to be a mobile game.ĭeveloped by FoxNext Games, D3 Go!, and Rival Games, Alien: Blackout will once again put players in the role of Amanda Ripley. While we initially thought this campaign was to flesh out the universe of Alien, it seems that isn’t the case.Īlien: Isolation is finally getting a sequel, but it may not be the sequel you’ve been clamoring for since 2014. This may be seen as underwhelming to some after Fox’s recent Read, Play, Watch campaign. When asked to clarify whether or not Blackout was non-canonical, we were told again that it is not a sequel. “ is a standalone game that shares Amanda Ripley as a main character but is not related to or a sequel of Isolation,” we’re told.

In response to whether or not Blackout would continue the story of Isolation’s Amanda Ripley, the protagonist of both games, Blackout’s PR company FortySeven said no. Fox’s upcoming survival horror mobile game Alien: Blackout is not a sequel to 2014’s Alien Isolation.
