Starship Troopers is a cult-classic sci-fi film from 1997 that is more popular than ever these days, so we’re thrilled to reveal Starship Troopers: Continuum from developer XR Games and publisher Sony Pictures VR is coming very soon to the Meta Quest platform. Get ready to fight for liberty and freedom, because in the world of Starship Troopers nobody quits!

This all-new action game takes place 25 years after the Battle of Klendathu that’s depicted in the film and Casper Van Dien is reprising his role as the legendary Johnny Rico for this return to the franchise. The war between the Federation and the deadly Arachnid is deadlocked, but the planet Janus-4 holds a powerful secret that threatens to tip the balance of power in the battle: The Continuum.

"We’re incredibly 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 VR, and we can’t wait for fans to fight the bugs and join Johnny Rico in VR for the first time.”

Starship Troopers: Continuum features up to three player online squad-based combat, over 20 different weapons, new enemies never before seen in the Starship Troopers universe, massive boss battles, and epic missions that send you out across unexplored terrain. It’s up to you to make the safety and security of the human race your personal responsibility.

"We couldn’t be more thrilled to work with Sony Pictures again to bring the legendary Starship Troopers franchise to VR” said Bobby Thandi, Founder and CEO of XR Games. “By stepping directly into the action like never before, players will get the chance to become a trooper, battle the bugs, and experience the Starship Troopers universe in an entirely new way."
