‘The Walking Dead: Betrayal’ Launches Into Early Access on Steam Today [Trailer]

Published

Skybound Entertainment and Other Ocean Interactive have announced that Early Access for The Walking Dead: Betrayal begins today via Steam. The third person action game of cooperation and deception for up to eight players is currently available for a 10% discount until September 21. Until then, for you “try before you buy” people, there will be a free weekend of play for Betrayal, starting at 10 AM PT September 14 and ending at 10 AM PT on September 18.

The team also laid out the Early Access roadmap for The Walking Dead: Betrayal, highlighting four major updates ahead of the game’s full launch. While no date for the full launch has been announced, a Q1 2024 has been penciled in.

Betrayal comes from the minds behind the hidden-role survival game, Project Winter. In each match, a group of survivors are out of resources with a herd of walkers on their heels. Players must work together to complete objectives and escape. They’ll need to work fast, as walkers aren’t the only threat they will have to face in rural Canada. Incognito ‘traitors’ lurk among them, plotting to do everything in their power to delay repairs, and prevent anyone from leaving. As evidence of their sabotage becomes apparent, paranoia and accusations threaten to tear the survivors apart as they desperately work towards escaping.

Survios Announces VR Title ‘Alien: Rogue Incursion’, Coming This Year [Trailer]

Remember back in 2022 when developer Survios had announced that they were teaming up with 20th Century Games to develop a new Alien title? Well seeing as it’s Alien Day, Survios has announced their brand-new VR title, Alien: Rogue Incursion. Coming “Holiday 2024” to the PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3, Rogue Incursion will feature an original story that “fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe”.

Details on the game are light at the moment, but the official site describes the upcoming title as being “designed by Alien fans for Alien fans”, with Survios aiming to craft a “technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.”

Seeing as Alien: Isolation never got official VR support when it was released, this is obviously a welcome announcement. In the meantime, if you’re keen to experience an Alien game in VR, you can always check out the fan-made mod for Alien: Isolation by Nibre_, which allows both the Steam and Epic Games Store version of Alien: Isolation to be played using the Oculus.

And speaking of Alien: Isolation, as you might expect, it’s got a hefty 80% discount going on at the moment on Steam until May 1. So if you still haven’t grabbed it after all these years, this is as good a time as any.
