QuoteThe Art of ALIEN: ISOLATION is a high-end art book featuring over 300 images from the latest game in the critically and commercially acclaimed Alien franchise. Taking players back to the survival horror atmosphere of the first film, ALIEN: ISOLATION features Amanda Ripley as the hero trying to survive on a decommissioned space station. The Art of ALIEN: ISOLATION is the ultimate gallery of the eagerly anticipated game, featuring extensive concept and development art, and creator and artist commentary throughout.
Thanks to space jockey for the link.
Will have to keep an eye out for this. I love looking at concept art and stuff.
This should come out with a Collectors Edition or something
Glad they're doing one, but why must it come out before the game does?!? Gonna be hard to avoid cracking that thing open... :P
Pity the 'Sebastopol' is looking like a re-hash of whatever the Nostromo was towing...
Day One purchase, though...
Not falling for that again, thank ACM for that.
Waiting for reviews, definitely.
176 pgs is a nice number. I feel like we're actually getting a respectable amount of material for $30

Super excited! Although, my wallet and wife won't love it.
Is this limited edition art-book going to be UK only?
Is that first Amazon link not for the US?

They both say hardcover. Same as the Forbidden Planet.
They are all hardcover but there's a limited edition that costs double.
Forbidden planet sells both: https://forbiddenplanet.com/121575-the-art-of-alien-isolation-hardcover/

The difference being the cover and a signature?
Yeah, cover and signed print according to the product page.
I preordered the original release immediately, and see no reason to upgrade to this one.
Yeah, I think I'll just stick to the standard edition.

Why pay the normal price when you can pay double for a different cover and an extra print signed by a dude no-one has ever heard of? You just don't make any sense Corporal! :)

Would love to get a copy of this if I had the extra cash. Getting a job soon, hopefully, so maybe then I can be like... "WOO! Lets waste money on merch instead of saving for a car!"

That second pic sure-as-hell ain't no 'Working Joe'....unless it was REALLY early concept art...
Just ordered my copy off Amazon. 20 quid yo!
That's a big ass gun in the last pic
This games has some really impressive concept art. Some of that stuff looks like finished works! Love those pencil sketches of the Alien itself too. Must have.
Preview look at the artbook (mini):

Is there any art featuring Ripley and the xeno in the picture?
God I kind of wish they kept the 70s wigs on the Seegson androids now! :D

Look at the full artbook:
Isn't that the free 'mini' artbook some countries are getting with the game and not the full book?
I think so but the cover for both is the exact same and it hasn't been stated that they are different afaik. It's usually just an scaled down version of the same thing with these pre-order exclusives.
thats really tiny for an artbook
Actually I just noticed it says something among the lines "The images from this book are extracted from The Art of Alien: Isolation, available at Titan Books".
Kinda weird since the mini book also says The Art of Alien Isolation on the cover but I guess it could be just a small extract indeed and not just an scaled down version.
Do want....
I bought my copy a few days ago and loved it! I was a tad disappointed that the introduction mentioned that it's only a "small portion" of the artwork and concept art from the CA studio. That being said, an artbook with over 300 pages is still a fantastic read.
In my opinion, It should've included more concept art for the characters.
