Could the riddle be hinting at... Alien?
Some lunatics shared this and figured I would post this here because it's just the right amount of contrivance for a BHVR licensing teaser.
Note how the "A" has several As, like "S-egg-aaaaaa".
Feel like Springtrap is a red herring, hence BHVR's use of the perk on Twitter today, and judging by how they delivered Silent Hill, BHVR like to use more commonly expected licenses to hide the real ones; like with Candyman teasing for Year 4 to hide PH and the Dimitrescu daughters for Year 5 with the sickle 5 to hide Nemesis.
Might be a bit of a stretch, but makes just enough sense for me to believe it.
(Edit: Plus, Aliens: Fireteam is coming out 24th August, which is VERY close to the next PTB's release. Something to think about.)

From BHVR's patch notes tweet. It's in the picture.

But . . . wasn't there an " I " featured? As a dropped letter?

I'd love to see Alien but, if the rumors are true and it's JUST a killer for now as a paragraph, I'd much prefer it to be a full blown chapter so we could get Ellen Ripley as a survivor. However, if this is the only way they could actually get the Xeno into DBD then, so be it! :D

I would expect Alien to be an anniversary chapter, it’s a very but license (and due to Disney probably expensive too) so they would probably want bigger marketing etc for it than just another random chapter?
but sure. Could be. I would be very very happy if we finally got an Alien chapter!

A paragraph would make sense though, for Alien. Disney own the greater licensing rights for the Alien franchise, but they're notoriously difficult to license with. Getting Ripley would be difficult because they'd have to appeal the rights for the original movie, and Disney would have to contact them first, which is much easier said than done.
Now, licensing a standalone "Alien" paragraph from something like Isolation or the new Fireteam game? You only need to go to Sega for that because they own the game-usage license for the Alien character(s). Much easier than attracting Disney's attention.
BHVR have done something like this before with Ghostface - they got the rights to the killer because the full movie was too expensive/difficult. I think this might be another case of that - AND it bypasses having to come up with a Nostromo map, which I'm sure the devs would be very happy to do due to all the conflicts the Nostromo would have with DBD's gameplay.

I don't like how much sense this makes. I want Ripley :(

I don't think it's licensed at all. Behavior has a certain trend depending on the chapter. If the chapter is licensed then they will give no hints, the only time we find out being when the first trailer drops.
When it's original Behavior is never shy about dropping hints or trailers that don't reveal anything like the first trailer to Curtain Calls
