Planet X

Planet X is a Virtual Reality Found Footage Psychological Survival-Horror game developed and published by Capcom in collaboration with Kojima Productions. It is director Hideo Kojima (Metal Gear, Silent Hills)'s second game under his new standalone Kojima Productions studio. Jun Takeuchi, who produced Capcom's Resident Evil, Lost Planet and the rebooted Dino Crisis series, is the game's producer.

Planet X is hyped as the spiritual successor to Silent Hills/P.T. with many of the original Lost Planet and former Konami staff from both production studios having been hired to work on the game. It follows the story of 4 dangerous convicts who've been sentenced to exile on a newly-discovered planet filled with terrifying paranormal and extraterrestrial activity: the titular Planet X.

The game is scheduled for release on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC with full VR support on all 3 systems. The game also boasts a first person Found Footage game mode, played entirely through a camera lens of each of the 4 playable characters, which can also be played in VR for full scare effect.

Synopsis
In the year 2032, a group of anarchists attempt to overthrow the government in what became known as the most egregious case of domestic terrorism in U.S. history. Held to answer for treason, capital murder of government officials, sedition and espionage, they're spared death and given an alternate sentence in lieu of a recent shocking astronomical discovery. With paranormal and celestial life lurking in the stars, these dangerous criminals must go where no astronaut has made it out alive: the extraterrestrial ghost planet, Nibiru AKA Planet X.

Content Warning Screen
In lieu of an old tradition, Capcom has re-implemented the content advisory message seen before the intro of many of their classic Survival/Action-Horror games. In recent years, it has been brought back with its contents being expanded to warn potential players of disturbing content in addition to "explicit violence and gore" similar to the additional blurbs about strong language seen in REmake and RE4's warning message screens. Each of Capcom's latest Survival-Horror games, Resident Evil 7: The War Ends Now and the Dino Crisis reboot featured such a warning message.

Planet X continues this tradition, warning players with an ominous disclaimer screen after loading the game up.

Characters
Planet X features four playable characters, each with their own separate-though linked-chapters as they try to find the rest of their crew after being separated in the game's opening cutscene.
 * Victor Markus-The brawns of the group. A former discharge of the U.S. Marine Corps, he's known for his brutal methods and hostile attitude.
 * Jake Hanley-Victor's right-hand man and sidekick. He accompanied Victor throughout all government raids. Very trigger-happy, but also likes to let his mouth rip with his cocky demeanor. Like Victor, he, too has a hostile view of the government/justice system after a Baltimore police officer was acquitted in his brother's murder.
 * Lisa Fox-The brains of the group and Victor's fiance. Named after Lisa, the poltergeist from P.T. and Gray Fox from Kojima's former Metal Gear franchise. She's a trained spy who specializes in her advanced hacking skills, she is the one responsible for illegally-obtaining and relaying all information and enemy coordinates to her fellow colleagues.
 * Colin Trevereaux-The sniper of the group. Colin would regularly post up top and help clear the area for his partners-in-crime. A retired hitman who was once the leading conman of the biggest murder-for-hire syndicate in Toronto (hence the Canadian surname), he was discovered and enlisted due to the vetting efforts of their fellow hacker, Lisa. Knowing his in-and-outs of the TPD, Colin looked to use his stealth and resourceful ways to help bring down the U.S. government.
 * Valor-The main antagonist of the game. She's a zombie-like poltergeist/ghost who can change the enviroment and appear/disappear at will. She regularly tests the will of all who encompass her home planet in the way of haunting puzzles which can have traumatic, if not deadly consequences for those who fail. She will also send extraterrestrial beings after the 4 conmen through a channeling with the dead. Worst of all, she psychologically-profiles each of her targets as she plays these mind games and uses this knowledge to exploit their biggest fears, even appear (completely at random) when the time is right. She's basically every player's biggest fears of the Xenomorph from Alien: Isolation and Lisa from P.T. all rolled into one horrific package.
