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.
In a sad and disappointing decision by SEGASammy, it has come to light that The Creative Assembly’s upcoming looter-shooter Hyenas has been cancelled in what is being described as a “response to the lower profitability of the European region“.
Hyenas was first announced back in June 2022. The game had only been recently made playable on PC in a closed beta that started on August 31st 2023. The game was due to feature some interesting SEGA fan service, with a character that cosplayed as Sonic the Hedgehog and a hacking device that looked like a Mega Drive.
SEGADriven would like to send our condolences to The Creative Assembly as it must be extremely deflating to learn all your hard work has gone to waste. We hope the team have more success with future developments.
The Creative Assembly have unveiled the latest entry in the Total War franchise with Total War: Pharaoh which launches in October 2023. As you can imagine with a title like that, the action takes place in ancient Egypt. You can check out the pre-rendered reveal trailer below:
Total War: Pharaoh will be the 16th mainline entry in the Total War series. The game is available to pre-order now and will be available on the Steam and Epic Games Store platforms for PC. There are 3 editions available offering various additional content packs and also a digital soundtrack download.
SEGA are gearing up for the release of A Total War Saga: Troy in September with a look at some of the monsters available in its Troy: Mythos DLC that will also drop on day one. The latest trailer takes a look at The Griffin Patriarch and you can watch it in action via the embed below:
A Total War Saga: Troy is the latest title in the long running strategy series from The Creative Assembly and the first to set its action during the Trojan War. The game will release exclusively on PCs on the 2nd of September 2021. You can wishlist it on Steam by clicking here. In addition to the base game, 4 DLC packs will also release alongside it; Troy: Ajax & Diomedes, Troy: Mythos, Troy: Amazons and Troy: Blood & Glory.
Following 2005’s Spartan: Total Warrior, The Creative Assembly return with another character-focussed action title that transplants its famous large-scale battle tech into something that isn’t a real-time strategy game. While Spartan had its focus on Greek mythology, Viking: Battle for Asgard transports us into Norse mythology, putting you in control of the Viking warrior Skarin, who is fighting the invasion of Midgard by Loki’s daughter Hel and her demonic minions.
The Total War YouTube has given us our first look at the Fates Divided chapter pack coming to Total War Three Kingdoms of March 11th 2021. The new chapter pack brings “significant improvements to several existing mechanics” as well as the following features:

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.
The next Total War game takes the strategy action to Greece for Troy: A Total War Saga. While there isn’t any in-engine footage to showcase at this time, a lovely pre-rendered cinematic has landed on the Total War YouTube channel which gives you a taste for the game’s setting. Check it out below:
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.
