<p><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">With the release of Alien: Isolation, Creative Assembly hopes to give Alien fans the video game that they want. Certainly Colonial Marines by Gearbox Software has been well documented as an over-hyped, under fulfilled mess of a game. In an effort to bring the game direct to the fans, Creative Assembly took the opportunity today to announce the release date at a fan expo in England.</span></p>
<p>Set in the time period of 1979, the game will play as a survival horror game set in space. Players will control Amber Ripley as she is being hunted on a space station by a rather large rogue xenomorph.</p>
<p>The announcement that was made today in Birmingham, England can be watched <a href="http://www.twitch.tv/egx/b/515315726" target="_blank">here</a>. Alien: Isolation will be released for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PC on October 7th.</p>
