Alien: Isolation 2’s Xenomorph Can Hear You Over the Microphone Audio (If You Let It)

If the prospect of evading the Xenomorph sounded terrifying, especially after playing the first Alien: Isolation , Creative Assembly has found a way to amp up the terror. When asked in a new dev Q&A video if it could hear players through their microphones, senior sound designer Marie Devies-Barrett answered in no uncertain terms, “Yes. They’ll be able to pick up your noise.” Thankfully, audio lead James Magee confirmed that this is an optional setting.
