I want to be clear that the new game is using an entirely new IP. We are making a whole new monster hunting game and this is not the Alien licence or any attempt to copy it! It gives us MUCH more creative freedom to go crazy with our own creations!

Really delighted with the community and press reaction to the new game. I am so excited to be returning to the survival genre with a whole new IP, 30 years after #avp I have even found myself on IMDB ;) #videogames #pc #survival #horror #ps5 #xbox

35 years ago, Terry Pratchett snoozing on my parents sofa, Douglas Adams fanclub peering through our living room windows to catch site of Dougie. The UK games industry out in force at the convention. #RETROGAMING #retrogames #atari #douglasadams tinyurl.com/eube5fxw
