Alien: Isolation lives again with a port to the Nintendo Switch on December 5th 2019. Porting duties are being handled by Feral and a new trailer showcases how close the visuals are to the original version. Check it out via the embed below:
Alien: Isolation was originally developed by The Creative Assembly and released on PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One back in 2014. This new port for the Switch is a digital only release via the Nintendo eShop.
The first in-game footage of Feral Interactive’s Alien: Isolation port to Switch is now available to view via the embed below and my word does it impress. It looks like very little graphical fidelity and resolution has been lost. Have a look for yourself:
Alien: Isolation for Switch is due to release this Winter as a digital download title from the Nintendo eShop. There is no hard release date available at this time. Alien: Isolation was originally developed by The Creative Assembly and released for PS3, Xbox 360, PC, PS4 and Xbox One back in October 2014.
During the wrap-up of Nintendo’s E3 Direct, casual mention of an Alien Isolation port to the Nintendo Switch was revealed.
While no in-game footage was shown, this port is due to release later in 2019 as a digital-only eShop title. Alien Isolation was originally developed by The Creative Assembly for PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One and released in 2014 to critical acclaim. It will likely be the last Alien game developed by SEGA after they lost the rights to the franchise, which have now reverted back to 20th Century Fox and its video games division.

The Creative Assembly are going through pain-staking efforts to bring the cast of Alien Isolation to life and instead of creating virtual characters and simply hiring voice actors to voice them, they have employed a real cast of actors whose likenesses are being scanned into the game and their acting is also being motion captured. You can see a glimpse of these efforts in a new behind-the-scenes video available below:
Strange observation: all the in game characters seem to be very sweaty and I’m not really sure why.
Alien Isolation comes out on the 7th of October 2014 for PC, PS4, PS3, Xbox One and Xbox 360.
Alien: Isolation has finally been confirmed and Eurogamer have the scoop on the announcement trailer. Check it out below:
Accompanying the trailer is a lengthy preview article and video also by Eurogamer. You can read the article by clicking here and viewing the preview by looking below:
Alien: Isolation will be a cross-generational game which means it will launch on PC, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3 and PS4 and it’s due sometime this year.
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.
