Alien: Isolation pre-order content unites original movie cast

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

A game we were already looking forward to just got a hell of a lot cooler. We've been stoked for ALIEN: ISOLATION (check out all of our coverage on the game, including trailers and pre-order info HERE), and today we've learned that the game is offering the best pre-order bonus ever as Sega has announced that almost the entire cast of 1979 movie classic ALIEN will reunite for two special bonus missions only available if you pre-order.

Sigourney Weaver (Ripley), Tom Skerritt (Dallas), Veronica Cartwright (Lambert), Harry Dean Stanton (Brett), and Yaphet Kotto (Parker) will all reprise their role, with only Ian Holm being replaced by a soundalike. The actors are set to feature in two downloadable bonus missions, which allow you to relive two classic scenes from the movie.

With this game 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.

Anyone who pre-orders the game will get a free upgrade to the Nostromo Edition, which includes the bonus content “Crew Expendable”. Players can choose to play as one of three surviving crewmembers, only moments after Brett’s death at the jaws of the creature. As Ellen Ripley, Dallas or Parker, players can explore the Nostromo from habitation deck down through engineering, coordinating their efforts with Lambert and Ash to lure the Alien into the ship’s airlock.

In addition, consumers who pre-order at GameStop will exclusively also receive “Last Survivor” in which players pick up the story as Ripley tries to escape on the Narcissus. On hearing the screams of Lambert and Parker, players must navigate their way back down through the Nostromo in order to activate the self-destruct sequence, before retracing their steps back to the Narcissus shuttle and their escape.

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, PlayStation4, Windows PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation3. Sounds like some fun Halloween gaming!
