What is Alien: Rogue Incursion?
Alien: Rogue Incursion is the first Alien game designed from the ground up for virtual reality. Visually, it is based on the retro-future of the two original films, with CRT monitors and analog equipment such as the motion tracker.
You take on the role of soldier Zulu Hendricks, who embarks on a dangerous rescue mission with her synthetic companion Davis 01. You will encounter xenomorphs that use the environment for surprise attacks. The dynamic combat reacts to the player's movements and noises, so silence is crucial for survival. Using tools such as a motion scanner and weapons such as a pulse rifle and shotgun, players must skillfully combine firepower and stealth to hold their own against the aliens.
Alien: Rogue Incursion is one of the few VR games optimized exclusively for Quest 3 and 3S and will not be available on older Quest headsets.
