It’s also easy to see how the original movie and specifically, the scene Jefferson described, helped shape this experience. The goal was to tick the same sort of boxes that both “Five Nights” and “Isolation” do in terms of fear and tension, he said. Laakso said “Five Nights at Freddy’s” was, in some ways, a jumping off point for this game. If some elements of “Alien: Blackout” sound familiar to fans of “Five Nights at Freddy’s,” that’s not surprising. The entire experience of directing the crewmates through the map in a game of fatal cat-and-mouse, intertwined with the need to keep yourself safe helps to deliver an unnerving game. ![]() But Laakso said the levels grow in size and the missions grow in complexity as players work through the levels. The first level of the game, which opens with the crew arriving at the space station, featured a relatively small map that included five cameras, 11 doors, and three motion tracking zones. He added that “Isolation 2” is currently not in development. When we started this project we thought about things like, is this going to get in the way of ‘Isolation 2’?” We know fans are really excited about ‘Isolation 2,’ so we’re not going to dash that opportunity. “There is room for an ‘Isolation 2,’” he said, “Or beyond that. Specifically, it takes place some time after that game, though Jefferson notes that there are no specific time mentions, so we don’t know just how long after “Isolation” it takes place. The game actually takes place in the same universe as the films and as “Alien: Isolation” and even has the same voice actor for Amanda Ripley. The set-up is that you play as Amanda Ripley, daughter of Ellen Ripley. In our time with the game, spent playing “ Alien: Blackout” on an iPad, we were able to play through the first couple of missions of the game. “That is how we ratchet up the tension in the game and the jump scares.” ![]() It’s a jump scare, one of the best scares of the film. Go there.’ They say, ‘Wait, stop, it’s on top of you.’ It’s an incredible scene where he’s saying, ‘I’m not seeing it,’ and it’s getting closer and closer and then it’s on him and he turns around and it’s right there. “And they’re walking him through the ducts saying, ‘Go here. “There is this great scene in the first movie where Tom Skerritt is in one of the ducts and he has a motion sensor on him,” Jefferson said. Specifically, TQ Jefferson, vice president of external development at FoxNext, said they took inspiration from one of the scariest moments of that 1979 movie.
