I’m trudging through a dark hallway when my motion tracker lights up. A green blip appears, and I sweat for a moment before I realize that’s just my android companion following me.
Then a second blip appears behind him. I panic, wildly moving my flashlight through the dark corridors to figure out what’s trailing me. By the time I see the sinister head of a Xenomorph dashing toward me, it’s too late; I already have a tail poked through my chest.
Related Keeping Alien punk Alien: Rogue Incursion is a VR first-person shooter set after the first Alien film. It stars Zula Hendricks, a name that should be familiar to fans of the series’ comics, and her android companion Davis 01. My demo would drop me into Zula’s second mission, which would have me sneaking through an abandoned ship, upgrading my key card authorization, and facing off against hordes of Xenomorphs that were often hiding in plain sight.
“What I took away from Alien: Isolation is that a strong personal connection to the character makes the franchise run,” White says. “We wanted to make sure that Zula Hendricks and Davis 01 have a thriving personal relationship, but also that the world in which they inhabit … even though it’s a haunted house, the ghosts are still there. And what I mean is that all the people who lived there are fully realized characters inside of this world.
Respect the Xenomorph There’s a lot to praise about Rogue Incursion so far, a game clearly made by a seasoned VR studio. Despite the fact that I have a lot of tools on my body, I easily get my sea legs as I pull health stims off one arm or juggle holding my rifle in one hand and my motion tracker in the other. It’s a tactile game, right down to my reload motion as I tip my rifle to drop out a clip, stuff a new one in, and rack it by pulling a lever on the side.
The developers in the room burst out laughing. “That’s the smartest thing anyone’s done today,” someone said.
