Alien: Rogue Incursion Story Trailer Revealed
Survios revealed the story trailer for its upcoming VR shooter,. The developers also discussed the new trailer and its “classic three-act” structure.
In a PlayStation Blog post, Survios Chief Product Office TQ Jefferson breaks down the Alien: Rogue Incursion story trailer, giving some insight into the tale they are telling within the beloved Alien universe. This includes their decision to have their protagonist Zula enter an already overrun research facility.
“One of our early creative decisions was that whatever happened on Purdan had already happened,” says Jefferson. “Zula is stepping into the aftermath of some event that has left Castor’s Cradle – the research facility – infested with horrifying Xenomorphs. Picking up the story after the facility has been compromised allows us to jump right into the suspense and action.”
As seen in the trailer above, Alien: Rogue Incursion stars Zula Hendricks, and Davis One, as they travel to LV-354 (a.k.a. Purdan) to meet up with Zula’s former squad mate, Ben Carver. As they enter Castor’s Cradle, they end up crash landing at the research facility. Jefferson considers this “Act One” of the trailer.
“Act Two” begins to focus on the events that led to the research facility’s downfall.
“Act Two of our story trailer focuses on revealing those events and showcasing the ‘Dawning Horror.’ We see inside the facility and hear the voices of the people who work there,” says Jefferson. “We weave in classic Alien themes like corporate corruption, personal greed, and professional hubris, all of which create a perfect storm of conditions for a Xenomorph outbreak. Hearing this dialog over the imagery of destruction, smoke, fire, and blood, we know the facility has already fallen.”
Lastly, the trailer’s “Third Act” focuses on Zula’s fight with the Xenomorphs as she discovers what is happening at the facility. This includes the experiments Gemini Exoplanet Solutions were conducting on the “perfect organism.”
