The upcoming VR game Alien: Rogue Incursion has been delayed until early next year on the Meta storefront. Developer Survios released a statement to social media explaining the delay this morning:
At Survios, we take pride in delivering top-tier immersive gaming experiences for our players. To ensure Alien: Rogue Incursion meets these high standards and provides the Alien VR experience that fans and players expect, we’ve made the difficult decision to delay the game’s release on Meta platforms until early next year. PlayStation VR2 and Steam versions of the game will still launch on December 19, 2024.
Our team has been delighted to see the reactions from the community, press, and creators following our first hands-on previews over the past few weeks, and we couldn’t be more excited to deliver this terrifying, action-packed, and authentic game for fans of Alien, VR enthusiasts, and players new to VR.
We can’t wait for you all to immerse yourselves like never before in this fan-favorite universe. Stay tuned to our social channels for the latest updates on the game – we’re confident it will be worth the wait, no matter where you play.
This release date change only affects the native Meta version of the game. The PlayStation VR2 and SteamVR versions of the game remain on track for release on December 19th. Those with a Meta headset can still utilize SteamVR to run the game from their PC hardware if they want to play the game on December 19th.

This is one of the reasons I *really* can't wait for 'Alien Rogue Incursion' 😃 - I think (probably like many here) the amount of horror movies / games I've experienced from a young age, I'm totally desensitised to it; I always enjoy horror and vibe with the atmospheric ones, but never feel scared, (mainly just enjoy the genre), with one single exception; Resident Evil 7 on PSVR; the VR added some 'realism' I hadn't expected! When Ethan's girlfriend burst through the wall with a chainsaw, and that rotating blade quickly came right up to your face in 3D, it scared the crap outa me, and I instinctively on reflex jumped back to dodge it (totally forgetting in the moment I'm in a chair with wires attached to me) and thanks to @Spicy-Nugget937 's cat-like reflexes, she caught my chair. 🤣 But it was SUCH a buzz / rush that I hadn't experienced actually being caught out by it. Given how Alien Isolation is high adrenaline as a 2D game, I think Rogue Incursion is gonna be a crap-your-pants fest even with the pulse rifle when xenos are above you, behind you etc (especially knowing that the ai learns and changes each play through!) Totally can't wait for this one! :-D
... "second hand things"??? 😜 I prefer the term 'pre-lov..err you know what? Second hand is fine.. 🤣
I'd still like the wish version; sometimes there's nothing wrong with second-hand things...
PSVR2 for me; I was genuinely tempted with the meta quest 3 (as thought the wire-free option would be great for when @Spicy-Nugget937 is using the PS5, or using it to watch movies when travelling etc) but had concerns on whether it could perform the same without the backing of a full console or PC behind it... the fact it's now delayed is kind of feeding those suspicions... I just wish I didn't feel like an ugly/wish version of the poster for Mamoru Oshii's Ghost in the Shell when using PSVR due to amount of wires 🤣 https://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimage.cine21.com%2Fcine21%2Fposter%2F2017%2F0307%2F16_37_17__58be632d02174.jpg&hash=6373dc6855919235d6174bd0f35023e4552856d0 🤣
I said the exact same lol Guess I shall be purchasing on SteamVR for sure now and playing via the Meta Quest.
Well this makes the choice easier 🤣
