Get scared and die trying in Alien: Isolation's Survivor Mode
Ian versus Gav. Does anyone make it out alive?
Alien: Isolation's Survivor Mode is a player versus alien, objective-based time challenge.
Players try to set the fastest time possible while escaping the clutches of the alien on a series of claustrophobic maps. At the end of your attempt you get a score, which is uploaded to global leaderboards so you can see how you did versus the wider player base. If you complete bonus objectives, displayed on the top right hand corner of the screen, you boost your score.
Ian and Gav each try their hand at Survivor Mode in the video, below, which gives us a good look at what it's like to play. Do either of them make it out alive?
