IGNwill be unveiling all seven episodes of the new digital series tomorrow,August 11, 2025, at 9am PT. Here’s the official description of what’s coming:
Naturally, we have several questions about this. How will these “new story beats” be incorporated? Are they deleted bits from the original development of the game, or did Fox hire a new team to create new material? What’s the ratio of new content to footage gamers have already seen? Will the two blend seamlessly, or will the new footage be obvious from the look alone? Thankfully, we don’t have to wait long to find the answers.
Alien: Isolationdidn’t perform well enough financially to earn a proper video game sequel (yet?), although its story was continued ina Dark Horse comic seriesthat hit shelves last month calledAliens: Resistance. In addition, anew mobile game calledAlien: Blackoutalso features Amanda Ripley and takes place sometime after the events ofIsolation– though we’re not sure exactly how long afterward. Currently, no otherAliengames (or movies, for that matter)have been announced, so rewatching old game cutscenes in the form of a digital series may be the closest fans get to newAliencontent this year. Still, “Alien Day” is coming up on April 26 and will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the original movie, so maybe we’ll hear more about the future of the franchise then.
