Creative Assembly have themselves a particular constraint when making Alien: Isolation 2. The sequel to their 2014 horror title would only reference their first game and the original 1979 Ridley Scott Alien film. It ignores all the other films that came after.

He had plenty to say on the subject. Many MMO players are still playing the same games they were 10-20 years ago, Johanson said, citing...
