[SDCC 2025] New Gameplay Trailer Debuts for ‘Alien: Rogue Incursion Evolved Edition’ [Watch]
With Part One of Alien: Rogue Incursion Evolved Edition coming on September 30, developer Survios has taken advantage of Comic-Con, debuting the new ‘Evolution’ trailer for the upcoming action-horror title. Pre-orders for the Evolved Edition are available now on PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam, with wishlisting available on Epic Games Store.
The new trailer gives fans a first look at the Evolved Edition’s even smarter and deadlier Xenomorphs in action, alongside enhanced visuals on display, including running at 60 FPS.
Set in the Alien film universe, Alien: Rogue Incursion – Part One sees players suit up as rogue Colonial Marine Zula Hendricks (voiced by Andia Winslow) on a mission to the planet Purdan (LV-354) in search of a former squadmate. After a sudden attack, Zula and her Synthetic companion, Davis 01 (voiced by Robbie Daymond) find themselves in Gemini Exoplanet Solutions’ hauntingly desolate research facility, Castor’s Cradle.
With the colony destroyed, resources like ammunition and health supplies are limited, so you’ll have to scrounge and scavenge to stay stocked. That means searching every possible room, closet, and corner, where more than just supplies are hiding. With Xenomorphs lurking everywhere, you’ll most likely hear them before you see them. Spatial sound alerts you where they’re stalking, but your survival is up to you.
Alien: Rogue Incursion – Part One stands alone as a complete story, but also leaves you hanging on a cliffhanger to dive deeper into Zula’s unfolding story in Part Two, where she will face new challenges and deadlier enemies.
The original VR version of Alien: Rogue Incursion is currently available for the PlayStation VR 2 and SteamVR.

Escape a Literal Hellhole in First-Person Survival Horror Title ‘Nature of Dread’ [Trailer]
Described as a nightmare “torn from the pages of Lovecraft, Nikolai Gogol, and Mikhail Bulgakov,” Nature of Dread is a newly-announced survival horror title coming to Steam. This sci-fi horror title has players fighting their way out of a nightmare deep within the northern wilderness, uncovering what has been buried under top-secret clearance for centuries.
The story for Nature of Dread that’s been revealed so far sees players awaken in the classified settlement of Hellhole in the northern forests. Built as humanity’s final defense in a war that has raged for over a millennium, the settlement was designed to contain an ancient evil. As these things go, in a desperate attempt to stop said evil, people tried to contain it, isolate it, and study it.
Ultimately, the military stepped in to do their usual cover-up routine, sealing the borders of the settlement off from the outside world and denying access. Unfortunately, things that were buried tend to have a habit of rising to the surface. Now you’ve been thrust into this centuries-old conflict, where you must decide how far you’re willing to go to protect what truly matters to you.
You’ll be facing off against the spawn of primordial evil, where these creatures learn, adapt, form packs, and change tactics the moment they sense your next move. Luckily, you’ll have plenty of weapons with which to fight these monstrosities, with the devs touting the game having a realistic weaponry system. Of course, since this is a survival horror title, you’ll need to be smart about your gear choices and manage your resources carefully in order to survive.
