As per SEGA’s recent strategy for the West, the company will be publishing more games using the Aliens IP. It was revealed a while back that The Creative Assembly would be making a game but today we finally have the first details as to what the game will be.
Kotaku have discovered that The Creative Assembly will create a game called Alien: Isolation. The new game will be a FPS due for release in 2014 and will be a cross-generational title.
The game is also supposed to take the form of a stealth/horror title and play similarly to games like Bioshock and Dishonored. You also play as Amanda Ripley; Ellen Ripley’s daughter.
SEGA are hoping to make up for the bad reception of Aliens: Colonial Marines by giving The Creative Assembly plenty of time to develop the title and have already delayed the game’s announcement from a proposed E3 reveal.
More on this as it develops.

We love the Wii. It’s a brilliant console that didn’t really get the love it deserved from the more experienced gaming public because despite its family friendly appearance, a great deal of exciting and interesting games got released for the system. Some of those were even published by SEGA!
The below video showcases our personal SEGA collection of games published for the Nintendo Wii with an in depth focus into why we like or dislike each of the games we own:
