SEGA Announce Alien Isolation 2 Is In Early Development

Monday, October 7th, 2024

The Creative Assembly have taken to social media to announce that a follow-up to Alien Isolation is in the early stages of development. SEGA will once again handle publishing duties.

The original Alien Isolation released 10 years ago for PC, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One and PS4. The game is a first person horror title where you are play as Amanda Ripley, the daughter Ellen Ripley as you try to investigate your mother’s disapperance on the space station Sevastopol. While you’re doing this you are being constantly stalked by a xenomorph and have to carefully explore using stealth so you don’t alert the xenomorph.

There is currently no word on which platforms are being targeted for Alien Isolation 2 or when we can expect the game to release. As this initial announcement from The Creative Assembly is just to reveal the game is in early development, I can imagine we’ll be waiting a while before we get to see something some substantial for this title.

A Build of the Lost SEGA Channel Game ‘Garfield: The Lost Levels’ Has Been Found

Wednesday, October 2nd, 2024

The holy grail of lost Mega Drive media has been discovered and was even playable at Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2024. A build of 1995’s Garfield: Caught in the Act – The Lost Levels has finally been unearthed after 29 years.

Garfield: The Lost Levels was a SEGA Channel exclusive version of Garfield: Caught in the Act that features 2 exclusive stages called Bonehead the Barbarian and Slobbin’ Hood. It is further enhanced with the Alien Landscape stage which was only made available via the SEGA PC release of Garfield: Caught in the Act that released in 1996.

An attendee at Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2024 called PZTunleaded has recorded 43 minutes of off-screen footage of the recently discovered build of Garfield: The Lost Levels and shared it on their YouTube channel. You can watch this footage via the embed below:

While PZTunleaded is not the owner of the build, the video description does mention that the general public will be able to play this build “sooner or later” which suggests the owner is going to release the ROM dump soon.
