While this was announced months ago and was drafted then, I’m only able to finish this recently. I’ll take my late late late pass now please. For those who pre-order the will receive the recently dubbed Nostromo Edition which includes Crew Expendable, where you play as one of the surviving members of the Nostromo, either Ripley, Dallas, or Parker. *Spoiler Alert* Ripley is going to be the only to make it.

If you reserve specifically at GameStop you receive another DLC bonus, Last Survivor. This is the last act of the Alien movie, where Ripley tries to escape on the shuttle, Narcissus. Hopefully the game will have as much tension and suspense the movie was able to achieve.

In my opinion, the success of this game will most likely determine the future of any Alien game moving forward. After the bait and switch Gearbox pulled with Aliens: Colonial Marines, I’m sure many people are skeptical about this one as well. Although the footage that’s been released has shown plenty of promise, the same could have been said about Colonial Marines.

With October 7th rolling around soon we won’t have to wait long for Creative Assembly’s Alien: Isolation to hit shelves.
