Story
Amanda Ripley is the daughter of Ellen Ripley, the protagonist of the original Alien film. Set 15 years after the events of the first movie, Amanda is an engineer working for the Weyland-Yutani Corporation. When she learns that the flight recorder of her mother's ship, the Nostromo, has been recovered and taken to the Sevastopol Station, she joins a mission to retrieve it. Upon arrival, she finds the station in a state of total collapse, terrorized by a single, unstoppable Xenomorph and malfunctioning androids. Unlike her mother, Amanda is a skilled technician who relies on her engineering prowess to craft tools and survive. Her journey is defined by a desperate search for closure regarding her mother's fate, forcing her to evolve from a determined daughter into a hardened survivor in the face of cosmic horror.
World
Fifteen years after the Nostromo vanished, the commercial station Sevastopol drifts in orbit around KG-348, governed by corporate contracts, failing infrastructure, and increasingly unreliable androids. Survival depends on concealment, scavenged equipment, and strict resource management, while a single Xenomorph hunts through the collapsing habitat. Amanda, a Weyland-Yutani Engineer, enters as investigator and becomes its desperate survivor.
