Thank you so much for this great review - we appreciate your feedback and coverage :) We are very happy to be releasing so soon, we can't wait for all the people to start playing Alien Rogue Incursion!
Matteo311: Mad props for putting together a compelling and very professional review! Thank you for what you're doing. It's got to be hard at times to keep pushing yourself to get thru this game or that game, meet your deadlines for this/that and still stay overwhelmingly positive. 'Can't say enough good things. I'm glad you're reaping some dividends as far as truly getting on the inside track on many games and getting invites that few do.
Good review man! Glad to hear you were able to the end! I finished it last night as well, after getting my save fixed. We share many of the same opinions on this one!
Awesome Review Matteo. What a banger holiday we have had this year!! Just one thing i would like to add is that the haptics, adaptive triggers and headset rumble really add to the immersion of this game on psvr2
We need to know about Part 2 before anyone buy's Part 1 as the price is high for this unless Part 2 is very cheap, I feel Servios split the game into 2 parts to meet the holiday sales window and as with Behemoth the latter part of the game was under tested
Haven’t seen the whole video yet but Thnks for not making a big fuss about the Part 1 thing. Others have taken a more negative approach to it. I think the VR TH-camrs in particular can really sway public opinion on games with little effort and sometimes scare the viewers from ever buying the games.
40 Dollars? I mean you can get the basic edition for 29 Euros which is better bc who cares about 3 cosmetics that look worst than the preorder bonus lol
Good review, seems balanced. I think for what you described $40 is a bit much. But as Meta tosses me 30% off coupons every now and then I will use one to buy this. Then the cost should be around ~$28. That seems fair for 7 hours of the first part of a longer game. As I'll be buying the Quest version I see I'll need to wait till Feb '25. No issues. Hopefully the developers will be able to learn from all this and really build on it for the later installments. Otherwise, I loved the look of what I see here.
@@toddgraves3447 I totally fail to understand what you gain to gain by pre-ordering. Broken day 1, week 1, month 1 and sometimes beyond. In the case of Skydance, their previous title Retribution was left a broken mess, all but abandoned. Developers stopped showing customers integrity and trustworthiness. They are lucky if I buy something within the 1st month tbh
I agree...this might get a point or 2 higher than Behemoth, IMO...but still, this looks at best a 7/10 to me, without yet playing it. I'll probably give it a go, but I'm a little reluctant, also considering it's "part 1"....hmmm.
@InnerRise ha. It's not a 'git good' competency issue. It's a yawn, boring the predicable repetitive wave mechanics are stale. They really limit any sense of tension build up etc. If mindless wave shooters is your jam, cool. Just think it's kind of a missed opportunity
I knew it wasn't going to be like Isolation, but the more I'm hearing about this game it sounds like it's technically a wave shooter with a story. How big is the space you're allowed to travel in?
@@stuartburns8657 why are you so butthurt? You're literally on multiple people's comments all in your feelings over the whole part thing. No one cares about your opinion when they're posting about this. Make your own comment and quit thinking everyone who comments here wants to see you in their feelings. 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for the review! I’ll be getting this as soon as it releases on Quest. One quick question, how long was the story / game play? You shared it wasn’t a short 2 hrs, was it 3? Or longer?
I saw the character shooting and holding the alien right in front of him. In the movies there would be acid splattering. Is that a component in this game?
So Part 1 is just like The Last of Us which has Part 1, Part 2 etc. And "Rogue Incursion" doesn't mean is a Rogue-Like, just like "Robocop Rogue City" is not a Rogue-Like game That's important to clarify for people The game looks awesome, gonna play when it comes to Quest 3 Hope the games become successful
@@Gamingwithmatteo311 Mmm kinda weird they're not upfront about that. As long as this game feels like a complete experience I guess its not a big deal, but still 🤷🏻♂
Presumably the bugs will be ironed out in patches shortly. Too bad that the story is a bit lacking in places, though perhaps with future installments, the story will pick up. After all, both Alien and Aliens take a while to really get going, but by the end it's non-stop action.
Its almost complete reversal for Servios & Skydance, Saints and sinners was awesome and Onslaught was meh!. No Behemoth was kind of Ok and Alien looks awesome. So glad Servios pulled it off. I wasn't hyped for this because of Servios history, but now I am. And im sure skydance will get there with Behemoth too. It's been a great year for VR, especially PCVR and PCVR2 & with batman on Q3. For me Metro is game of the year, so immersive, especially the trippy lost bits, the world most accurate bad mushroom trip simulator. Just to let you know you called the Servios Walking dead game saints and sinners at 2:17, easy done as saints and sinners it so talked about. Cheers for this review.
Part 1 bait and switch. Pistol kills in 3 shots Safe rooms lol Waves of attacks every 3 minutes..constantly. Looks decent graphically. Tired of broken launches, and whilst I was cautiously pessimistic, the various so-so reviews make it a hard pass
Do you think the bulk of the polish issues can be addressed through updates? Would that be enough to move it further towards great? Very much looking forward to this game, just trying to decide which platforms to buy it for. Hoping I can get enough from my 4060 ti, to get it for PCVR, or if I'm gonna wait and just get it for Quest 3 when that releases. If it's great, I might get both and see if there's cross platform co op and get some group action rolling with my buddy. Sounds like a good alternative to DoE for our weekly beat downs.
Hey Matteo, great review. Got little scared by the title. But I guess it is acceptable with the hope of improvement. Even more if there are going to be 4 more acts, I would say, let's support them and hope the rest gets to the level it should. The only question I have is, how many hours, roughly, would this be? Not as a speed run, but paying it to enjoying it. Taking your time. On another subject.... This got me thinking... How is it we still don't have a decent predator game in vir? (or avp one).
For me it's the disappearing melting aliens that did this in. Its a cheap development trick to make it run well on the quest 3 and Shouldn't be done on the PSVR2 or PC. It's lazy if you ask me. Because it shows
I risked Behemoth at full price and really haven't been happy with the jank even after the latest patch. As much as I want to play this game to take full advantage of my OLED Headset, I think I am going to be giving this one some more time in the oven/wait for a sale.
when the xenomorph move on ceiling / wall, it doesn't look like it has weight. move like cockroach with no mass. this game cannot represent the heavy firepower feeling M41-A at all. When hitting the xenomorph, it just stood there without shocking or tear apart, then suddenly drop on the floor to play dead. looks like a cheap light gun game back from 90s
@@lukenaylor7908 this game is designed to ALSO run on mobile chip. so PC gamers supposed to be dragged by meta quest? also I am not talking about graphic. I am just comment the motion design of xenomorph is more like an insect rather than a powerful beast. does this require power chip to run?
Like I said for months -Alien will not be a masterpiece - for that, it would need more sneaking mechanics, more polished Animation and Graphics! - you could see that already in every screenshot. Overall I think it's a bit better than I was expecting it- which is good :D
It's great to know that Survious has evolved this is the one. Survious has released games that were previously mediocre, and now they're releasing a really good game that's almost excellent! It's a giant breakthrough and I'm very happy for the developers. I've already bought my game and excited to enter the world of Aliens!

@Gamingwithmatteo311 Thanks for replying, I've hearing from other sources that the Aliens are on a kind of 3 min timer and they will appear in a room even if you don't move?
@ Ooh, yikes. How avid of a horror VR player are you? It’s my most played genre so I’m worried I won’t find it scary(unless there’s really cool moments that are unexpected completely and not just jump scares).
Another disappointment to some degree. Personally Sega should do an Aliens rail shooter experience for PSVR2. Amazing set pieces, boss fights, etc.. unfortunately unlikely to happen.
IDK, $40 per piece, and I can't share it properly with the kids because Meta does not have decent family sharing... meh. A Steam version may be a decent deal.

@stuartburns8657
5 to 7 hours of gameplay sounds good for a vr game. Plus, it would be a good ip to have multiple sequels.
Great review as always Brodie.
Can't wait to play this myself. Got my adult diapers ready for when it gets too scary lol
Really really good review. Thanks.
They need to do Alien isolation in VR. That game is terrifying!
There is a vr mod for the pc version.
@@legi0n3r does it have motion controls ?
They are. Alien Isolation 2 is in the works with VR support.
Great overview, Alien Isloation must be 10 years old now on the ps4 , a stunning game ..I was playing it last week..
Can't wait for this, but also super pumped for the Alien Isolation sequel!!!
40 Dollars? I mean you can get the basic edition for 29 Euros which is better bc who cares about 3 cosmetics that look worst than the preorder bonus lol
I would love an Alien horde mode to remind me of the Alien arcade games. I can't wait though!

Yeah I was really hesitating until the last minute, but I just pre-ordered it on Steam. This looks pretty cool.
Pre-ordered lol. When will ppl wise up.

Nice easteregg that they used the original HR Geiger design for the facehuggers from the 1979 movie. These are the only versions that had fingernails.
