    Final Alien Isolation Trailer Once Again Asks How Will You Survive

    The final in the #HowWillYouSurvive series for Alien: Isolation was released today by Sega called Last Chance.

    Sevastopol Station is a deadly place and the danger does not always come from the three meter tall hunter/killer on the loose. The station’s artificial lifeforms, ‘Working Joe’ synthetics, may be rudimentary but remain lethal to those caught unaware; the station’s surviving human population may not always present a friendly face, scavenging what little resources
