Not only does this coming Friday mean our fourth official Alien Day, it’s also the release day for the final two entries of Fox and Tongal’s Alien: 40th Anniversary Shorts! The teaser trailer for Alien: Alone has now been uploaded to the official Alien Anthology outlets and is available to get you in the mood for the last shorts!
Hope, an abandoned crew member aboard the derelict chemical hauler Otranto, has spent a year trying to keep her ship and herself alive as both slowly fall apart. After discovering hidden cargo, she risks it all to power up the broken ship in search of human life.
The shorts are usually released online at 9am PST/5pm BST but how IGN is going to handle the release of both of the shorts is currently unknown but I assume they’ll both go up at the same time. Alien: Alone was written and directed by Noah Miller.
Following Alone’s release on Friday, be sure to check back in with AvP Galaxy for our intervew with Noah!

Respectfully disagree. I do like Specimen though.
I saw all of them a while ago and think Specimen is best
9/10
Great work man! I look forward to those without the 4K release seeing this when it drops for everyone on Friday.
I wonder why that is. Welcome, Noah!
I don't want to say much about this one but... it is going to be controversial. I'm so glad this one was made. Maybe not as technically well made as Ore and Specimen, but some seriously intriguing ideas, the best music of the bunch, and some really fun miniature work, too!
As Hicks said in another thread, it'll likely be the most divisive too.
I just hope the next short is better because Specimen is still the only short that really grabbed me.
For me it goes from best to worst;
Specimen
Containment
Ore
Night Shift
I'd say night shift was indeed mediocre.
Specimen and Ore were both fantastic.
Containment has grown on me slightly, merely as a character piece.
I have big hopes for this one.
