A Haunting Tale Set in Antarctica

Invariant takes players to a cutting-edge research station in Antarctica, where a mission critical to humanity’s survival unfolds. Naturally, things have gone horribly wrong, and it’s up to you, playing as a scientist, to restore order. Along the way, you’ll face a rebellious AI, strange creatures, and unhinged colleagues, using an arsenal of weapons, tools, and your quick thinking to overcome numerous challenges.

Though no release date has been set yet, a first trailer for the game is already available. The game will launch on PC via Steam. Let’s not forget that Half-Life: Alyx brought the series to VR a few years back with Valve Index.
