Inverse, BlackGate and the future of 4v1 Asymmetrical Horror Games

It’s always a heavy day when a pillar of the VR community sunsets. With the news of Inverse being discontinued, the asymmetrical horror landscape is losing a major player. We know how much that community poured into the game, and as fellow fans of the 4v1 genre, we’re sad to see it go.

If you’re looking for a new place to hunt (or be hunted), we’d love to welcome you to BlackGate.

We’ve been watching, listening, and working closely with former Inverse players and the broader horror community to ensure BlackGate evolves into the experience you’ve been asking for. From tightening the 4v1 balance to refining the "Zero-G" terror of our derelict space station, our goal is to build a game that truly reflects the current climate of VR, one driven by player feedback rather than just dev-room theories.

🚀 A Gift for the Displaced Agents & Monsters

To make the transition a little easier, we’re offering the Inverse community 40% off BlackGate.

Why Make the Jump to BlackGate?

• 4v1 Asymmetrical Horror: Whether you’re an Engineer trying to restore power or an evolving Alien specimen, the high-stakes tension remains the same.

• Zero-Gravity Locomotion: Navigate the station by pushing off walls and using thrusters, adding a layer of verticality and dread you won't find anywhere else.

• Evolution Mechanics: As the Alien, you don't just hunt; you grow. Start weak, feed, and evolve into an unstoppable apex predator.

• Community-Led Dev: We’re active in the Discord every day, taking requests and making changes based on what you want to see next.

The airlock is open. We hope to see you on the station soon.
