Alien Isolation Is Finally Getting a Physical Release On Switch Via Limited Run Games!
When she left Earth, Ellen Ripley promised her daughter she would return home to celebrate her 11th birthday. She never made it.
Amanda Ripley's story comes to Limited Run this May. Pre-order the Switch physical editions of ALIEN: ISOLATION – The Collection on 5/26. pic.twitter.com/iztW7Unymm

That is one ugly steelbook but I sort of want it anyways
Oh boy! Another 10 year old port on my p0rT@Bl3 console! I CAN’T WAIT!
The Collection? What’s that for? Sorry, I haven’t played this game before..
It’s an excellent game if you haven’t played it already. If you have no other platform, it’s worth a playthrough unless the port just sucks.
LRG sucks… you’ll be waiting a year at least for this.
Excellent news!! I particularly don’t really care if I get it months ahead (blame the backlog).
I’ve had this for years and have never made it an hour into the game
I’d rather it have a normal retail release instead of through a company that feeds off of FOMO, but pretty neat it’s getting a Switch physical.
God dammed knew it.
They teased it like a year ago, those bastards.
One of my favorites!
…via Limited Run Games.
Yep. Worthless.
Good luck to anyone who chooses to order through LRG, you may get your game after 2 years sitting on a preorder. I’m still waiting on my Doom Eternal through them, ordered in 2021.
I’ll buy it if it ever makes it to Best Buy, but there’s no way I’d ever order anything directly from Limited Run.
if they didnt take years to ship things out, id consider it.
That VHS edition looks sick.
Ew not Limited Run Games
Thanks a lot sega
Just a heads up, they’re avoiding answering whether or not the whole game will be included on the cart. Wouldn’t put it past them to cheap out on a smaller cart size and it still requires downloads.
Limited Run are a bunch of conmen. Absolute embarrassment of a company. They’re an artificial scarcity and FOMO factory. They claim to want to preserve physical games, but all they really want is to manufacture a batch of games, run preorders to sell a portion of them, then sell the rest to scalpers, wait I mean distribution partners, who can gouge you on eBay.
It’s a huge disappointment that companies are working with these crooks. I would genuinely prefer to not have a physical release at all than to line these thieves pockets. I bought Quake from these bastards and my order took like a year to arrive. When it got here the box was crushed and the product was damaged. I asked for help and they basically told me they weren’t going to do anything about it.
