## Summary

Creative Assembly says Alien: Isolation 2 will continue as survival horror, drawing on the atmosphere and design of Ridley Scott’s 1979 film. The sequel is planned for next year and returns to the same part of the Alien timeline, with a new protagonist and planet.

Project art director Ana Sopikova said the team studied behind-the-scenes photographs and original costume-making methods, working with 20th Century Studios’ archive. The Xenomorph is the same creature encountered in the first game, now on a new planet; the developers plan to add detail while retaining its original look.
