Rogue Incursion” Suddenly Labeled as “Part 1

When Survios launched their much-anticipated horror-shooter, Alien: Rogue Incursion (2024), last week, fans weren’t quite expecting it to come with a ‘Part One’ tag. This unexpected detail left many wondering if they were getting only a portion of the full game. But, as it turns out, there’s more to the story than just a single release.

Upon its release on PC VR and PSVR 2, the ‘Part One’ label sparked curiosity among players. Were they about to experience a complete game, or was it being split into episodes? In our comprehensive review, which scored the game at a commendable 7 out of 10, we found that it delivers a robust eight-hour adventure. The game impresses with its immersive settings and adrenaline-pumping confrontations with packs of Xenomorphs reminiscent of raptors. However, this thrill was slightly dampened by repetitive enemies and a challenging save system.

Responding to the buzz, Survios clarified via a post on X that the ‘Part One’ label wasn’t meant to confuse or imply that they were breaking the game into sections. While this standalone experience does reach its climax with a cliffhanger, it’s designed as the first chapter in a two-part narrative.

Adding to the excitement, Survios confirmed that Part Two is already being crafted. They teased that players could expect it to feature “deadlier enemies and more difficult challenges,” which certainly has our anticipation levels high.

While the community eagerly awaits these developments, we’re also keen on seeing how the game performs on the Quest platform when it lands on Quest 3/3S on February 13th, 2025. As noted in our review, the game boasts dynamically loading levels, detailed textures, and extensive physics-based interactions. These are likely factors that contributed to the delayed release for the Quest.

Here’s the full statement from Survios:

> To our valued community,

> We’ve received significant feedback regarding the ‘Part One’ label appearing in Alien: Rogue Incursion’s introductory moments, in the achievement/trophy lists, and on store pages.

> Our intention was never to mislead or confuse our players about the nature of the game. We understand now how the ‘Part One’ addition might have been perceived.

> Part One is a self-contained adventure that ends on a cliffhanger. We wanted to assure fans that there is more to come, which is why we announced Part Two alongside the launch. As enthusiasts of the Alien universe at Survios, we’re eager to delve deeper into stories about Zula, Davis, and others.

> While we currently have no further announcements about Part Two, except that it’s actively being developed, rest assured that we’ll share more thrilling updates in the future.

> We are grateful for the passion and excitement you have shown for Alien: Rogue Incursion, and we hope you enjoy exploring Purdan and Castor’s Cradle as much as we enjoyed bringing it to life.
