Alien: Isolation defies the typical shooter formula. In this survival horror masterpiece, direct confrontation is often a losing strategy, particularly against the relentless Xenomorph. Your arsenal is intentionally limited, situational, and geared more towards evasion and survival than outright combat. Whether you're evading Working Joes, navigating hostile survivors, or momentarily frightening off the Alien, mastering your tools is paramount. This guide details every key weapon and craftable item you can use to improve your odds against the terror of Sevastopol. Let's get started.
The Molotov Cocktail is one of the very few items that can force the Alien into a temporary retreat. A direct hit will cause it to shriek and flee. Be warned: this is not a permanent solution. The creature will return, often more determined and aggressive than before.
Flashbang
Use: Disorients humans and synthetics.
Best Against: Creating a window to escape.
The Flashbang emits a deafening noise and a blinding light. While it inflicts no physical damage, it can temporarily stun human opponents or distract androids, making it perfect for avoiding unwanted fights.
You can also experience Alien: Isolation on a larger screen using BlueStacks on your PC or Laptop, enhancing control with a keyboard and mouse.
