details on the survival horror AAA, NetEase would be at the maneuver

Two days ago, Tom Henderson revealed that a survival horror with AAA ambitions based on the Alien license was in development. The name of the studio at the controls of the project had not filtered, but the insider had promised to continue its investigations. And obviously, it paid off because according to the guyit is NetEase Games which would be in charge, and more precisely Grasshopper Manufactory (No More Heroes, Lollipop Chainsaw, Killer is Dead, Let It Die). For the record, the Suda51 studio was bought by the Chinese giant last year, which guaranteed the teams in place that they would retain total creative freedom.

The summer preceding the officialization of this acquisition, Suda51 had indicated that Grasshopper Manufacture had five projects on fire, and that one of its wishes was to create its own licenses in the next ten years, the studio having built its reputation on franchises not owned by him. A little later, the boss said that three of them were already defined, and that one was even in pre-production.

Returning to the survival horror Alien, Tom Henderson clarified that the developers intended to draw inspiration from Resident Evil and Dead Space, and that the objective was to release the game at the end of 2023 on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PS5 and PC. As always, it’s better to wait for a formal confirmation and not to draw plans on the comet.
