Discover the true meaning of fear in Alien: Isolation, a survival horror set in an atmosphere of constant dread and mortal danger.

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 10.29/day in the week to Aug 18 → 16/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Reviews
With the announcement of a second Alien: Isolation game, this felt like the perfect time to dive back in and finally review the first one. It should come as no surprise that Alien: Isolation performs incredibly well on the Steam Deck. It’s an older title, so feel free to crank up the settings. Even today, the game still looks incredible. They absolutely nailed the atmosphere, but the sound design might be even better. If you’re not playing with good headphones or a solid set of speakers, you’re only getting half the experience. I found myself relying on sound direction more than the motion detector the game gives you. Now for the biggest talking point: the alien AI. Listen, buddy, when I say these were the most tense 24.4 hours I’ve ever spent gaming, I mean it. By the 18-hour mark, I was begging for the game to end because of how tense the alien made every situation. If I was careful enough, I could sometimes crouch through an entire level without the alien ever showing up. That doesn’t mean it couldn’t appear, though. Oh, it definitely could. Other times, the alien seemed to know exactly where I was going. Even when I was being incredibly quiet, it felt like it had a general awareness of my location. That could feel a little unfair, but it also meant I never felt completely safe. If you love the Alien franchise, appreciate great audio, and enjoy the feeling of constantly being hunted, just play it. You might be begging for it to end like I was, but you’ll definitely have fun getting there.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 9: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

i'm too scared to finish this game
Great game have several copies.
Super gra, świetny klimat
la serie cinematografica di Alien è una delle mie preferite, con quei capolavori diretti da Scott, Cameron, Fincher e Jeunet. Questo gioco l’ho amato, lo xenonorfo è allucinante
Great horror game with good story and gameplay. One of the scariest games I have played and recommended to play on the hardest difficulty.
Mechanically sound, satisfying haptic sound design, game looks as great as it plays. Has more than just the alien, and gameplay consists of diverse tactical loops that keeps gameplay feel fresh and interesting.
If your a fan of alien isolation than sure its a great game but besides for that its really poorly play tested the ai feels stupid and nothing is shown or explained to the player so the only way to play the game without slaming ur head against a wall is through guides which is really lame
This game took me 84 hours to beat simply due to the fact that it took me 5 attempts at this game before I cared enough to come back and beat it once and for all. That said, I'm one of the biggest alien franchise nerds I know, I DO still love this game. However, the AI system and game save features (or lack there of) make this game INSANELY frustrating at numerous points where only in 2026 did I finally play it all the way through. I AM looking forward to the announced sequel, but I REALLY hope they turn around and give this game a next-gen rehaul AND overhaul to a few systems to make a "definitive" edition that will also include all the DLC as one package. This game is scary and one of the biggest gaming bullies I've ever beaten. I think one of the greatest supporting details to back up my stance on all this is that (per steam achievements) ONLY 20% OF OWNERS OF THIS GAME HAVE BEATEN IN ON ANY DIFFICULTY. Imagine that out of 10 people only 2 had the patience to play it through.
very challanging even on easy, fun and great images like the alien. very well done for a older game.
