I am glad they are going with the retro look for this one. It will be interesting to see monochrome monitors and such.
“This isn’t a world of holograms and touchscreens; there’s no sense here that
technology is going to save you.” – Alistair Hope, Creative Lead.
To stay faithful to the original source, Alien: Isolation™ takes a retro look to the
future with a design aesthetic which developer Creative Assembly describes as lo-fi
sci-fi. It’s clunky, it’s chunky, it’s push-button and analogue. There are no
phasers or lasers, and the smartest weapons you find may be tied together with duct
tape and string. A world very much of CRT not LCD, Alien: Isolation may be set in
the future but it’s very much baked in the past.
Alien: Isolation is a first-person survival horror game capturing the fear and
tension evoked by Ridley Scott’s 1979 classic film. Players find themselves in an
atmosphere of constant dread and mortal danger as an unpredictable, ruthless
Xenomorph is stalking and killing deep in the shadows. Underpowered and
underprepared, you must scavenge resources, improvise solutions and use your wits,
not just to succeed in your mission, but to simply stay alive.
Alien: Isolation will be available from October 7, 2014, for Xbox One, PS4™, Windows
PC, Xbox 360 and PS3™.
