Alien: Rogue Incursion initially launched on PSVR 2 and PC VR headsets in December, bringing the primary VR-native recreation to the storied ‘Alien’ franchise. Now, developer Survios has lastly launched the sport on Quest 3.

In our launch-day evaluate, we famous the sport’s Xenomorph encounters, highlighted by the enemy’s raptor-like searching model, have been certainly pulse-raising, though have been overly encumbered by the sheer repetition of random encounters. We additionally famous frustrations have been compounded by a punishing save system. In our (spoiler-free) evaluate, we gave it a [7/10].

Granted, the sport has benefitted from quite a few patches although earlier than hitting Quest 3 this week, which you’ll discover on the Horizon Retailer priced at $40.

Arguably a very powerful patch arrived just a few days in the past, the place Survios rebalanced Xenomorph spawning by adjusting their listening to and imaginative and prescient to stop overwhelming numbers and overly correct consciousness of the participant’s location. That patch additionally modified the sport’s save system a bit, now giving gamers the flexibility to load earlier saves as an alternative of simply the one.

We haven’t had an opportunity to play by way of the Quest 3 model simply but, though early opinions appear combined. YouTube channel ‘Gamertag VR’ offers an important overview of the sport’s newest Quest launch, noting a couple of graphical quirks.

“Sadly, on the Quest, [the dark atmosphere] is ruined as a result of the primary half of the sport truly isn’t darkish in any respect. You’ve got a flashlight connected to the left facet of your head, however for the primary 4 to 5 hours, you’ll by no means want to show it on as a result of the sport merely isn’t darkish sufficient.”

Gamertag VR reviews nevertheless Xenomorph encounters really feel extra pure total, possible the results of the newest patch previous to the sport’s Quest 3 launch.

For a 1:1 comparability between variations, YouTube channel ‘The VR Grid’ does a side-by-side look between Quest 3 and PSVR 2 (utilizing the bottom PS5) for instance a few of what’s been given as much as match the sport on Quest 3’s Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor.

Whereas The VR Grid notes gameplay retains largely the identical really feel throughout Quest 3 and PSVR 2, above you’ll see the Quest model doesn’t embody as a lot (if any) dynamic lighting, real looking ambient results like steam, and has a extra restricted draw distance total. On the flipside, it does embody easier-to-read in-game textual content.

Though we’re merely calling the sport Alien: Rogue Incursion right here, technically the sport is barely ‘Half One’ of a two-part story arc, one thing Survios addressed in a press release in late December the place they famous the primary within the collection is a “standalone journey which ends with a cliffhanger,” however will even embody “extra on the horizon.”

The studio is at present engaged on ‘Half Two‘, which is claimed to proceed Zula’s story, “pitting her in opposition to deadlier enemies and harder challenges.”
