Survios has announced that Alien: Rogue Incursion, originally a VR title, will release a non-VR version titled Alien: Rogue Incursion Evolved Edition on PS5 and PC on September 30, 2025. This action-horror game sees players step into the shoes of ex-Colonial Marine Zula Hendricks as she and her synthetic companion, Davis 01, explore the dangerous planet Purdan while uncovering Weyland-Yutani's dark secrets. The Evolved Edition promises enhanced visuals and more challenging Xenomorph encounters. Available in both a $29.99 Standard Edition and a $39.99 Deluxe Edition that includes bonus content, the game seeks to appeal to a wider audience beyond VR enthusiasts. Despite its mixed reviews highlighting AI and performance issues, there's excitement around this title as it moves beyond VR limitations.

The non-VR release, titled Alien: Rogue Incursion Evolved Edition, will feature enhanced visuals and deadlier Xenomorphs, alongside both Standard and Deluxe Editions that include additional bonuses.

Nice to see the Alien franchise getting more love, but let's hope the non-VR version brings more than just prettier graphics—those Xenomorphs better make me scream like it's 1979 again. At $30, I'm cautiously optimistic, but Survios better not pull a Weyland-Yutani and cut corners.

Nice to see Alien: Rogue Incursion breaking free from VR—hopefully those enhanced visuals and tougher Xenomorphs make the transition worthwhile. Fingers crossed the AI issues get ironed out, because a polished Alien horror experience is always a good time. Expanding to non-VR is a smart move, especially with the Alien franchise's fanbase. The Deluxe Edition’s bonus content sounds tempting, but I’m more curious if the gameplay can live up to the series’ reputation. Alien: Isolation set the bar high for horror, so Rogue Incursion has big shoes to fill. If the Evolved Edition nails the atmosphere and tension, it could be a solid addition to the franchise. Glad to see more Alien games, but I hope this one captures the dread of the classics. The Xenomorphs better be as terrifying as they sound VR or not, as long as the game delivers that signature Alien tension and scares, I’m in. Just don’t let it be another buggy mess at launch. Interesting move ditching VR exclusivity—hopefully the tweaks make it feel like a proper Alien experience. That price point is pretty tempting too. Another Alien game is always welcome, but I’m cautiously optimistic. The franchise has had its hits and misses, so here’s hoping this leans more toward Isolation than Colonial Marines. Enhanced visuals and deadlier Xenomorphs Sign me up. Now let’s see if the gameplay can back up those promises. Alien games live or die by their atmosphere, so if Rogue Incursion nails that claustrophobic horror vibe, it could be a winner. Fingers crossed Non-VR support is a great call—more players should get to experience this world. Just hope the performance is smoother than the VR version’s reviews suggested. Weyland-Yutani’s dark secrets and killer Xenomorphs Sounds like a classic Alien setup. Hope the execution delivers. $30 for the Standard Edition seems fair if the game lives up to the hype. Here’s hoping it’s more than just a prettier port. Zula Hendricks is a cool character to focus on, but the real star better be those terrifying Xenomorph encounters. Don’t let us down, Survios Alien: Rogue Incursion has potential, but it’ll need more than just a non-VR port to stand out. Here’s hoping the Evolved Edition brings some real improvements. Survios taking on the Alien franchise is bold—hope they do justice to the series’ legacy. Those ‘more challenging’ Xenomorphs sound promising. After the VR version’s mixed reception, the Evolved Edition feels like a second chance. Let’s see if they stick the landing this time. Alien games are at their best when they make you feel helpless, so if Rogue Incursion captures that, it could be special. Just don’t skimp on the scares Love that they’re making this accessible to more players, but the real test is whether it can match the tension of the best Alien games. Bonus content in the Deluxe Edition is cool, but I’d trade it all for a truly terrifying Xenomorph AI. Fingers crossed Alien: Rogue Incursion has a solid premise—now it just needs to execute. Here’s hoping the non-VR version fixes the VR edition’s flaws. Another Alien game means another chance to scream at my screen. As long as it’s scary, I’m happy. Survios has a lot to prove with this one, but if they nail the horror, it could be a sleeper hit. Don’t mess up those Xenomorph encounters Enhanced visuals are great, but it’s the atmosphere that’ll make or break this game. Hope they’ve dialed up the dread to Alien: Isolation levels. Zula Hendricks and a synthetic buddy vs. Weyland-Yutani’s secrets That’s a solid setup—now deliver the scares to match. $40 for the Deluxe Edition isn’t bad if the extra content is meaningful. Just hope the core game is worth the price of admission. Alien: Rogue Incursion could be a gem if it leans into the franchise’s strengths—isolation, tension, and brutal Xenomorph encounters. Don’t play it safe, Survios After the VR version’s rocky start, the Evolved Edition feels like a redemption arc. Here’s hoping it lives up to the Alien name. More Alien is always good, but only if it’s done right. Here’s hoping Rogue Incursion brings the scares and not just the bugs. Non-VR support is a smart move—now just make sure the gameplay is as tight as the premise. Those Xenomorphs better be relentless Alien: Rogue Incursion has the pieces in place—now it’s all about execution. Don’t waste that terrifying potential, Survios. Zula Hendricks deserves a great game, so here’s hoping Rogue Incursion does her justice. And by ‘justice,’ I mean terrifying Xenomorph chases. Enhanced visuals are nice, but it’s the gameplay that’ll determine if this is a must-play or a pass. Fingers crossed Another Alien game means another chance to relive that ‘79 horror. Just don’t forget what made the original so iconic—atmosphere and dread. Survios has a shot at something special here, but they’ll need to nail the horror. Those ‘more challenging’ Xenomorphs sound like a step in the right direction. Alien: Rogue Incursion could be a hit if it balances action and horror right. Here’s hoping it doesn’t lean too far into either. $30 for the Standard Edition is a fair ask if the game delivers. Just don’t pull a Colonial Marines on us, Survios. Weyland-Yutani’s secrets and killer Xenomorphs That’s the Alien formula we love. Now make sure the gameplay holds up its end. Zula Hendricks is a great protagonist choice—here’s hoping her game is just as compelling. And terrifying. Mostly terrifying. Non-VR support opens this up to way more players, which is awesome. Now just make sure it’s a game worth playing. Alien: Rogue Incursion has potential, but potential doesn’t mean much without execution. Here’s hoping they stick the landing.

Non-VR support is a great call, but the real test is whether the game can stand on its own. Here’s hoping it does. Another Alien game is always exciting, but they’re not all hits. Here’s hoping Rogue Incursion leans more toward Isolation. Survios has a chance to redeem the VR version’s missteps with the Evolved Edition. Don’t waste it Alien: Rogue Incursion could be a standout if it nails the atmosphere. Just don’t forget what makes the franchise scary. Enhanced visuals and deadlier Xenomorphs Sounds like a step in the right direction. Now deliver the horror to match. Zula Hendricks is a cool protagonist—hope her game lives up to her potential.
