Alien: Descent artwork.
Alien: Descent is an immersive virtual reality attraction at The Outlets at Orange in Orange County, California themed around the Alien film series. The 4-player experience will require each player to wear VR goggles, immersing them in an Alien environment, their movements tracked with sensors worn on the arms and legs. Players will be armed with their own VR weapon that they can use to defend themselves from the threats they encounter.[1]
The attraction opened on April 26, 2018, as part of Alien Day.[2]
Overview
The experience places players in the role of Colonial Marines, tasked with investigating a distress signal sent from a Weyland-Yutani mining outpost. The outpost reported an unidentified infestation before communication was cut off, and the player squad must investigate the cause, eliminate the Xenomorph threat they encounter, quarantine any survivors and escape the planet to safety.[1]
