The Alien franchise has been providing fans the thrill of pure terror for generations across multiple platforms. Where most of the films focused on Ellen Ripley and her fight for survival, the most recent video game Alien Isolation switched the focus over to Ellen’s daughter Amanda. Now it appears that Ripley’s daughter might be making a return to continue the story once more.

Amanda Ripley was cut from the original films with a little bit of lore tied to her backstory and was later featured in Alien: Isolation. It was there where the character took on the task of trying to understand what happened to the crew of the Nostromo and her mother. A recent Tweet from the official Alien Twitter account hints that not only another game is on the way, but that Amanda Ripley will once more be a focal character to the story. The Tweet states “Daughter. Rebel. Hero. Her story deserves to be told,” begging the question, “who is Amanda Ripley?”

Daughter. Rebel. Hero. Her story deserves to be told…

It’s been rumored for some time that a new Alien title is in the works, going so far back as January of last year when Fox acquired Cold Iron Studios. It was later hinted that the game would be present at the 2018 Video Game Awards under the name Alien: Blackout, however it failed to make an appearance. This new tease does indicate that something is coming concerning the character, but unfortunately there’s no way of knowing just what “it” is.
