Sega and Creative Assembly have finally officially revealed Alien: Isolation 2 with a new trailer at Summer Game Fest 2026.
While the trailer stops short of announcing a release date or even a release window, Alien: Isolation 2 has now been confirmed for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam, and can now be wishlisted from their respective stores. Alien: Isolation 2 will also be coming to Nintendo Switch 2, and will be available to wishlist from the eShop soon.
Players will explore the Weyland-Yutani outpost Kurosaki Station as part of Alien: Isolation 2’s campaign. The story will be told from the perspective of a brand new protagonist, and once again pit you against the deadly xenomorph in a terrifying game of cat-and-mouse. New tools, techniques, and tactics to help you outmaneuver and overcome the perfect organism are promised.
“It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel,” said creative director Al Hope in a statement. “Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer.”
Creative Assembly confirmed that a sequel to Alien: Isolation was in the works back in 2024, a decade after the original was released. Earlier this year it teased outdoor environments, a major change from the claustrophobic corridors of the first game. As this new trailer shows, Alien: Isolation 2 will shift between interior and exterior locations, allowing us to explore the surface of the colony world beyond the walls of Kurosaki Station.
Here’s everything announced at Summer Game Fest 2026 if you need a catch up on what the video game industry has in store.
