Blackout do sound like some kind of multiplayer. They are definitely going to ride the Battle Royale wave.

But hopefully they do some sort of singleplayer too.

Isolation is my fav aliens game since aliens vs predator 2 by monolith.

I don't think that's related to Alien. This game would be by Cold Iron Studios.

EDIT: Yeah, that thread is specifically talking about Creative Assembly working on a new IP. Nirolak has made a couple of threads about the Alien game though, which sounds more like a co-op FPS RPG thing in the vein of Destiny.

Alien isolation is one of the best surprise for me this gen. I desperately think it needs a sequel/prequel (made by Creative Assembly).

Rules for Alien battle royale:

99 human players with a radar device each
1 player as the alien with heightened speed
Humans have 10 health
Alien has 90 health
25 pulse rifles spread out over the map
25 armor packs spread out over the map
Friendly fire is on

Every time the alien kills a human it gets +1 health
Every time the alien's health drops by 10, the lights in the map dim down.

Therefore: if the map only has 1 human and 1 alien, the alien's health will be high, but the map will be pitch black allowing a human with a radar device a sliver of a chance.

Alien: Blackout

Coming fall 2019.

AAMARMO putting in work this morning finding this and the Parasite Eve trademark.

I guess this jives with Kojima visiting God recently and the whole TGA themed around Weyland Yutani thing.

Presumably this is the multiplayer Alien game we've heard about. I'm not holding out much hope.

99 Marines & 1 Facehugger.

As the Marines get caught the Alien side grows stronger until there is one Marine left.

*edit* That would not really work due to the nature of the life cycle.

Tell me why The Game Awards, not even Keighley's personal, would tweet their slogan randomly at a tweet regarding Kojima visiting 20th Century Fox?

I guess it was a fun response to all the discussion here and elsewhere suggesting the Worlds Will Change gifs were maybe Alien related *shrug*? Maybe it turns out it is all related but can only go by what Geoff himself has said.

It would be cool if someone could do this for Rocksteady's game. tried searching myself and the only thing that showed promise was DC Comics filing Justice League trademarks across a ton of countries earlier this year.

If it's like Destiny I'm instantly out. I just want another game like Isolation

I want the Aliens to Isolation's Alien. Literally. Moving from the slow burn intensity of Isolation to an action horror survival shooter would be incredible. Creative Assembly nailed the Alien aesthetic so perfectly that I have absolutely no doubt they could pull of Aliens.

Aliens is the only film I've ever wanted a great video game adaption of, and I'm still incredibly upset that Colonial Marines ruined that possibility for years.
