Alien: Rogue Incursion Is Escaping VR With New Enhanced Edition

Last year, the Alien franchise returned to video games with Alien: Rogue Incursion, a VR-only title that was available on PS5, Meta Quest 3, and PC. Now, Rogue Incursion is set to get a new, non-VR enhanced edition that's just a few months away.

Survios--the developer and publisher behind the game--has announced that Alien: Rogue Incursion - Part One: Evolved Edition will hit PC and PS5 on September 30. The new version will include "even deadlier xenomorphs and enhanced visuals."

The game features a story that is set between Alien and Aliens, which puts players in control of former Colonial Marine Zula Hendricks. After surviving a previous encounter with the xenomorphs, Zula is dedicated to eradicating them and preventing the weaponization of the xenomorphs. The game follows Zula on a human colony, LV-354, after it has been overrun by the xenomorphs and facehuggers.

Alien: Rogue Incursion also had a cliffhanger ending that seemed to set up a sequel. The official site for the game confirms that the story is a two-part tale, but it stopped short of formally announcing Alien: Rogue Incursion - Part Two.

Last year, a sequel to Alien: Isolation was also announced, with the original creative director Al Hope returning for Alien: Isolation 2. Additionally, the Alien TV series, Alien: Earth, will premiere on FX and Hulu later this year.
