Alien: Isolation Nailed the Perfect Atmosphere Long Before Alien: Romulus

20th Century Studios achieved a resounding success with the release of Alien: Romulus, a film set between the first and second movies, directed by the talented Fede Álvarez. However, the director himself stated that Alien: Isolation was a major inspiration for this film.

This 2014 game perfectly captured the abrasive atmosphere of being hunted by the creature in a way that no other media had achieved. Thanks to the movie’s success, this game has gained popularity across the platforms where it is available. The success and quality of this game are undeniable.

Alien: Isolation Excels at Creating a Terrifying Atmosphere

Alien has gone through all sorts of adaptations or films that left much to be desired, particularly in failing to respect its own canon. These films include Prometheus and Alien: Covenant, both heavily criticized by fans due to inconsistencies with earlier movies.

Fortunately, ***** and Creative Assembly published a game that redeemed the franchise, and it continues to be one of the most faithful representations to this day.

Alien: Isolation not only respected the character’s origins and the first films, but also perfectly recreated the atmosphere of being hunted by this creature.

The director of Romulus praised this game, saying it was one of his inspirations when filming the successful movie. This game’s best feature is that you cannot ***** the creature, only evade or scare it away, allowing you to continue your escape.

An Example of How to Adapt as Best as Possible

The renewed interest in this character has led many content creators to play Alien: Isolation for the first time, showcasing how well it captures the horror atmosphere.

Unfortunately, not all games based on the Xenomorph have achieved this level of immersion and gameplay experience. Recent titles set in this universe have disappointed many fans by attempting different genres without success.

Isolation was a turning point for the Alien franchise in terms of adaptations based on such an important and long-lasting series. Since Romulus is on par with the original films, fans want more Romulus content and to see how far the franchise can go.

Currently, there is no confirmed development of any other game featuring the Xenomorph and company. This character has a ton of potential to be discovered.

Creative Assembly, the studio behind Isolation, has entirely focused on creating various games based on the Warhammer 40K franchise.

One of the studio’s strengths is the Total War series, which has seen several releases in recent years. Some fans still hold out hope for some kind of sequel or similar project featuring this creature as the protagonist.
