Fox seems to have bookmarked a new Aliens game titled Aliens: Isolation. There has been no word yet on the platform or even the developer, however SEGA does still own the rights to the series.
SEGA has announced Fearless: Year of Shadow, a campaign that celebrates Sonic the Hedgehog and his brooding acquaintance, Shadow.
GamesIndustry.biz writes: "Relic is best known for the Company of Heroes and Dawn of War games, and recently developed the new Age of Empires for Microsoft. Relic will transition to an independent studio and will no-longer be part of the Sega group of studios.
The majority of the 240 job cuts are across Creative Assembly and Sega Europe, while there will be a ‘small number’ cut from Sega HARDLight. There was no mention of other Sega UK studios, including Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive."
Shame about Creative Assembly, they should have just been allowed to do an Alien Isolation sequel.
It was that garbage coh 3 that did them in only a special team can make a sequel worse in every way even though it was a 10 year gap and the same era.
Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive probably run on a shoe string budget so that fits into SEGA better lol
Sega had such a turbulent existence from the mid-90s to when they dropped out of console manufacturing entirely in 2001, it’s understandable if you’ve never heard of the Genesis Nomad.
Aliens has so much potential. A great survival horror experience is certainly possible. Hopefully this wont be a action adventure game billed as a survival horror.
Honestly, I thought Aliens Vs Predator, the most recent one, wasn't terrible. The Marines scenarios were always intense because there were always so many Xenomorphs!
Hopefully, Gearbox or whoever it was, gets no where near it.
For Gods sake don't let Pitchford near it.
