BrutalGamer Bringing you Brutally Honest feedback from today's entertainment industry.
Launched as a virtual reality-exclusive last December, an improved Alien: Rogue Incursion is coming to PS5 and PC.
Get it, “bursting out”
If you’re a VR headset owning Alien fan, then chances are you remember Alien: Rogue Incursion. From developer Survios, the game put players in the boots of a rogue marine called Zula Hendricks, and sent them back into the universe of the feature films. Their destination was the planet Purdan, and a research facility that’d gone dark.
At the time, the only way to play Alien: Rogue Incursion was in VR, as it was a virtual reality exclusive for both PC (Steam) and PlayStation 5. But that was then, and this fall will bring a revamped version of the game to an even wider audience. Alien: Rogue Incursion – Part One: Evolved Edition will see the game again hatched for those two platforms, albeit with no headsets required and reportedly both enhanced visuals and “even deadlier Xenomorphs”.
“As a team that truly loves Alien, we’re incredibly proud of the immersive original story we’ve told with Alien: Rogue Incursion,” said TQ Jefferson, Chief Product Officer, Survios. “Following our great start on VR platforms, we’re excited to bring the Evolved Edition to PC and PS5 later this year so that fans of Alien can experience Zula’s journey wherever they prefer to play.”
Surveys press release
Set in the Alien universe, Alien: Rogue Incursion – Part One sees players suit up as rogue Colonial Marine Zula Hendricks on a mission to the planet Purdan (LV-354) in search of a former squadmate. After a sudden attack, Zula and her Synthetic companion, Davis 01 find themselves in Gemini Exoplanet Solutions’ hauntingly desolate Castor’s Cradle research facility.
Equipping iconic weapons and gear like the Pulse Rifle and Motion Tracker, players will explore the depths of the Xenomorph-infested facility in search of answers, quickly discovering the danger that lurks around every corner. Gather intel and supplies and learn about the Cradle’s former inhabitants on a journey to unlock the mysteries of what went so wrong.
Survios press release
Set to stalk the PS5 and Steam for the PC this fall, Alien: Rogue Incursion – Part One: Evolved Edition is up for wish-listing now. Also remember that if you’d like to get up close and personal with those xenos, the original version of the game is still available for the PSVR2, PCVR (via Steam), and Meta Quest 3 and 3S.
