[1] Pleased with the prototype, Fox Interactive green lit the project and further assigned the team to create a game which would appear in the film.

[1] Fox announced that Alien Resurrection would be released in late 1997 on the Sony PlayStation, Sega Saturn, and Microsoft Windows.

[2] Fox weekly shipped the team boxes of scripts, storyboards, and raw footage from the film as reference material.

[1] Frustrated at having a year's worth of work completely scrapped, a significant fraction of the development team quit the project.

[1] The team struggled over technical difficulties with their 3D game engine for over a year, and in late 1998 decided to change the format a second time, to a first-person shooter.

[1] The game was finally released exclusively for the Sony PlayStation in 2000 (20 October in the US and 1 December in Europe),[5] almost three years after the film ran its course in theaters.

[1] Jeff Lundrigan of NextGen said that the game had "Nice atmosphere, but what starts out frustrating quickly becomes kinda slow and dull.

[1] GamePro said that the game was "a fine first-person shooter, but unless you're a big fan of the films, there are even better options (Medal of Honor, Quake II) out there.
