About the Game

SYREN is designed exclusively for VR.

SYREN is a story about a scientist obsessed with eugenics who conducts horrific experiments in an attempt to recreate the lost species of ‘Syrens’. But now, the experiments have gotten loose.

EPISODE 1: You awaken into chaos, a lab in ruins; creaking under the pressure of the sea. Systems are failing everywhere. Something is down here with you…With the station reactor about to go critical, you have to evacuate the lab, and save yourself.

NEW UPDATE: INTRODUCING EPISODE 2

Set after the events of SYREN, you play CIA agent, ‘Manning’ in this action packed free roaming shooter. Thrust into a world of violence, you must use your military skills to obliterate the deadly swarm of syrens stalking you, and make your way to the mystical Anomaly.

Episode 2 is available with the purchase of SYREN, or as a free DLC for those who have already purchased.
