Alien: Isolation 4K gallery

Features
By Andy Kelly published 26 July 2016

High resolution screenshots of The Creative Assembly's horror masterpiece.

Two years later, I'm still playing Alien: Isolation. The Creative Assembly's homage to Ridley Scott's 1979 classic is a great horror game, but it's the urge to revisit Sevastopol and the Nostromo, and soak up that chunky retro-futuristic aesthetic, that always lures me back.

For someone as obsessed with the production design of the movie as I am, the opportunity to explore a painstakingly authentic recreation of that world is hard to resist. And today I decided to head back to take some 4K screenshots of what is, for me, one of the most beautiful games on PC.

Thanks to Cinematic Tools for the camera mod.
