Alien:  Isolation, the upcoming survival horror game based in the Alien universe, has received a release date of October 7th.  The game is being developed by Creative Assembly and published by Sega.  In past looks at the game, Creative Assembly has stressed the importance of this game being of the survival horror genre.  There will be no blasting through waves of aliens, but a lot of creeping through the corridors of the game’s setting, trying to avoid the alien that is hunting you.

It’s no secret that Alien has a bit of a rocky past in the video game field.  Last year’s Colonial Marines didn’t do much to help this image, but Isolation looks to be a vast improvement, from what we’ve seen of it.
