Fox Is Creating A Free-Roam VR Experience Based On The 'Alien' Franchise

FoxNext, the interactive entertainment branch of Fox, is creating a virtual reality experience based on the “Alien” franchise. The experience will reportedly be free-roaming where participants will walk around a facility to navigate a virtual world full of xenomorphs.

A proof of concept for the new “Alien” VR experience was shown off to members of the press last week. The multiplayer game will be open to the public by the end of the year. When it’s completed, four players will be able to roam a 2,000 square feet environment equipped with prop guns and a VR headset.
