Sony Pictures Virtual Reality and XR Games announced a new take on an iconic IP, as Starship Troopers: Continuum will be coming to VR platforms. The game will put you in the role of an older Johnny Rico who is training and sending a new line of troopers who have psychic abilities into battle. You'll train them and help them level up, then send them into the middle of a conflict where they'll use their newfound skills to take out the bugs as best they can. The better they do, the better you do as a commander to take on new missions that require a lot more planning than just throwing bodies at the wave. We have more info and the trailer here as the game will arrive on Meta Quest 2 and 3 on October 17, 2024, while PlayStation VR2 players will get it on October 31, 2024.
