South West England, June 27 2024 – In a new trailer debuted during the Upload VR Showcase, independent UK-based VR game studio, Crooks Peak, proudly announces the upcoming release of By Grit Alone. Coming to Meta Quest 2 and 3 in September 2024, By Grit Alone is an intense single-player VR action horror shooter that plunges players into the terrifying void of space where ancient derelict starships and ravenous aliens create a chilling fight for survival. Pre-orders are now open on the Meta Quest Store.

​

By Grit Alone is not just a game but a harrowing experience of frantic combat and deep sci-fi lore. Trapped in the so-called "Bermuda Triangle" of space, players must navigate through deathtrap wreckages, rogue AIs, and hard vacuum—all while battling relentless alien swarms. The unique sci-fi anthology narrative features twisted tales from renowned writers, including talents behind Dead Space, Resident Evil 8, and Doctor Who.

"Imagine the terrifying intensity of Dead Space or Aliens in a fully immersive VR environment," says Charlie Cochrane, Founder of Crooks Peak. "By Grit Alone combines brutal combat and dark, intricate storytelling to create a relentless and immersive experience that keeps players on the edge of their seats."

Key Features:

• Frantic Combat: Prepare for up-close and personal battles with aliens attacking from all directions - if the swarm doesn't take you, the deathtrap wreckages, rogue AIs, or hard vacuum will. With a focus on constant action and tension, players wield a powerful adaptive shotgun to survive unending alien assaults.
• Sci-Fi Anthology Narrative: Each derelict starship presents a unique story crafted by top writers like Antony Johnston (Dead Space, Resident Evil 8) and Emma Beeby (Doctor Who, Judge Dredd). Expect dark, brutal, and weird tales of cannibalism, cults, sentient biofuel, and more.
• Immersive VR Experience: Designed exclusively for VR, the game offers seamless transitions and continuous gameplay without loading screens. Fly between ships, dodge asteroids, and navigate treacherous environments, all while being immersed in the sounds and sights of this cosmic nightmare.
• PEGI 16 Rating: This game is intended for mature audiences due to its intense violence and cosmic horror themes.

By Grit Alone, you will survive.
