The Curious History of Alien Isolation

Please consider supporting us on Patreon: / gvmers
As of the early 2010s first-person survival horror games were a rarity, a space most notably occupied by the likes of indie hit Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Triple-A games in the genre, the Resident Evils, Silent Hills, and Dead Spaces of the world, had yet to move beyond the tried-and-true third-person perspective. Change peeked over the horizon by the middle of the decade, though, with another indie success, Outlast, and Hideo Kojima’s P.T. demo laying the foundation for a new wave of survival horror. Little did anyone know, an Alien project based on Ridley Scott’s 1979 classic would also move the needle.
The ambitions powering Creative Assembly’s vision for Alien: Isolation were grounded by far more than a shift in perspective. In using the original film as a stepping stone, Isolation tread ground that no other Alien-based video game had dared traverse. Previous interactive adventures through the sci-fi universe placed special emphasis on the action-oriented qualities of James Cameron’s 1986 sequel. Such titles supplied players with advanced firearms and assigned the arduous task of killing Xenomorphs-Alien: Isolation did neither. Creative Assembly instead encouraged players to avoid the creature, hide from and fear it, even distract it when necessary. But fully understanding the core of the experience they wanted to create proved a formidable undertaking for the team.
Four years of production were devoted to the project. A new engine and major gameplay changes imposed several challenges on a studio that lacked a survival horror pedigree. To the delight of many an Alien fan, however, those obstacles culminated in a one of a kind exploration of the seminal franchise.
This is the history of Alien: Isolation.

Extremely proud to have been involved in the development of this game. A great team whose passion paid off. I was pleasantly surprised to see Gamers cover this. I've yet to speak to someone who actually completed the game. Most of my friends gave up for it being too scary :D. If anyone wants to collect my ID I'm in Comms as 'D.Turner' (not my actual name).

[@jeffreyokun2355]

Thank you for a wonderful game that is begging for continuation! It's one of the few games that was so good I had to play through to see what happens in the end. I love survival horror like dead space, but even those games I've not finished. isolation was another story, that had to be experienced through. We need another alien game similar to isolation but in VR!!!

[@user-kt3qs9ki8p]

OOOoooh, as a massive fan of this game it is always exciting to see one of the devs doing as much as even leaving a comment under a video on the game! It is my favourite video game experience ever and even after clogging up over 250 hours on it and learning how it works and how its elements come together, amazingly it is still incredibly effective! Say, what was your role in the development if you can share that with us?

[@JJSideshowBob]

Can't express my gratitude for your contribution to this masterpiece. I hope you all received the appreciation you deserve, it is quite obvious that this must have been a passion project for a lot of people involved. I got that wonderful art book last year and yes, I have finished the game - twice - including all achievements 🙂

[@BritGeeks]

You guys are great :). Always makes me happy to see others who enjoy A:I. You can actually play it in VR, albeit a little hacky. I remember trying on a DK1 and the map was projected on the floor. Very cool. A:I was my second industry job. I was at CA as part of their QA team before moving onto Total War. The A:I team were some of the most passionate and devoted people I've ever worked with. Thank you all for your kind words.

[@Laughing_Individual]

Arguably the greatest survival horror of the last decade. This game was literally a love letter to all Alien fans. The sound design in this game still blows me away to this day. No game has ever given me so much anxiety, stress and excitement all at once.

[@lutherheggs451]

Its just too bad that it was too long, had long stretches of nothing made worse by having to sneak constantly, alot of backtracking and. the AI that hilariously people jerk off about while ignoring that FREQUENTLY the Alien AI would either get stuck in a loop or, outright break forcing you to quit and reload.

[@Laughing_Individual]

@@lutherheggs451 I do agree that while the Alien can be unnecessarily aggressive at times, it's still one of the best enemy AIs out there even compared to ones today. I also agree that the game could've executed the android plot a bit better as I only saw it as padding. They could've woven the android bullshit into the Alien plot instead of just using it as an interlude before the climax.

[@discojoe3]

I think you mean it was figuratively a love letter. If it was literally a love letter... then it wouldn't be a video game, it would be an actual love letter.

This was the only game capable of capturing the true essence of the Alien franchise and one of the most worthy. All the team responsible for it must be praised for their amazing work. Shame on the reviewers who trashed this game upon release. They are the ones to blame for this title never have received a sequel.

[@markvanwalsem3201]

These same reviewers are complaining these days about not getting keys no more...the irony.

[@jazzx251]

There were only two reviewers who gave it a stinker - the worst being IGN's Ryan "5.9" McCaffrey ... a self-important charlatan that even dared to host his own "panel" in response to the backlash (let's ALL invent a panel TV show to explain away our terrible mistakes!...) It was pathetic, like he is. IGN later had a lady from Australia explain why she loved ALIEN Isolation - a sort of hidden apology. But not a re-review or anything like that. I did enjoy Lucy's version of reviewing the game though - it's a shame she wasn't the one to do the original review. 5.9? - even the soundtrack should raise it to a 7 at least! Other reviewers - such as Gamespot - made it their Game of the Year!

[@shadewolf0075]

I wouldn't say it captures the essence of the franchise but definitely the first film because the franchise has shifted between horror and action-horror

Not only it suceeds in any area, but this game is also the only “movie to game” that actually captures the exact vibe of the movie and also adds to it without detatching itself a single time, and with it being horror I think thats an extra hard theme to pull off.
