‘Starship Troopers’ Heads to VR This Month With XR Games’ ‘Starship Troopers: Continuum’ [Trailer]


Starship Troopers fans are getting spoiled with another video game, this time courtesy of Sony Pictures Virtual Reality (SPVR) and XR Games with their newly-announced VR title Starship Troopers: Continuum. Arriving on Meta Quest 2 and 3 on October 17, Continuum will also launch for the PlayStation VR2 on October 31. Pre-orders are now open on the Meta Store.

Continuum will see Casper Van Dien once again reprise his role as the legendary Johnny Rico,  and is set 25 years after the Battle of Klendathu. The war between the Federation and the Arachnid is deadlocked, but the planet Janus-4 holds a secret that threatens to tip the balance of the war in The Continuum.

In the Continuum you are an experiment, a PsyCommander, with advanced psychic powers. You control Troopers, rank them up, and try to keep them alive. Promote them to citizenship for big bonuses, and advance your own powers faster. You can also add psychic perks to build your perfect Trooper.

“We’re excited to work with XR Games to bring Starship Troopers: Continuum to life in VR,” said Lance Sloane, SVP, Virtual Reality, Sony Pictures Entertainment. “The energy, atmosphere and action of Starship Troopers is perfect to experience in virtual reality. We can’t wait for fans to fight the bugs and fully immerse themselves in the world of Starship Troopers in VR for the first time.”

For you non-VR types, keep an eye out for Offworld Industries’ Starship Troopers: Extermination, which is set to leave Early Access and launch on October 11 on PC via Steam, with a PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series launch on the same day, courtesy of Knights Peak.
