Konami’s run-and-gun Contra collection will crossover with free-to-play VR hero shooter X8 in a brand new occasion this December.
Introduced at this time with a short teaser trailer, Thirdverse revealed this upcoming X8 occasion collaborates with Contra: Operation Galuga, the most recent Contra entry that launched for flatscreen platforms in March. X8 will introduce Operation Galuga’s foremost protagonists – elite commandos Invoice Rizer and Lance Bean – into the primary roster. Here is the teaser trailer.
“The rogue AI “Index” seeks to broaden its affect past X8’s digital area by focusing on the sport Contra. After gathering knowledge on Invoice and Lance, the heroes of “Contra”, Index creates hundreds of thousands of replicas of those iconic characters; the aim is to make them struggle in arenas to coach and ideal its system,” said Thirdverse in a press launch.
Not a lot else is at present recognized about this upcoming crossover, and at this time’s announcement coincides with a separate new content material replace. That introduces a brand new ‘Temple’ map, a revamped in-game store, lore for every hero that is discovered within the ‘Hero’ part, new beauty skins, and balancing changes.
X8 is offered now on Quest, Steam, and Pico, and it is also confirmed for PlayStation VR2.
