While a lot of interest in Sega arcade news as of late has been focused on the upcoming Western release of Maimai DX<\/a> and House of the Dead Scarlet Dawn\u2019s new theater cabinet design<\/a>, those aren\u2019t the only titles that Sega Amusements<\/a> have in their pipeline. They have recently released an update on their latest collaborative effort with 3MindWave,<\/a> the two-player motion-based virtual reality shooting game Alpha Ops VR Strike<\/em><\/a>. For those who may be unaware or missed our previous coverage, this\u00a0officially debuted at IAAPA 2024<\/a> and was last seen at EAG 2025<\/a> in January. Let\u2019s take a look at what\u2019s new with it:<\/p>\n

Alpha Ops VR Strike \u2013 Updates<\/h3>\n

First off, one thing that was mentioned by both the Sega Amusements and 3MindWave teams at IAAPA was that the cabinet seen there (and at EAG) was not quite final yet. Changes to the marquee and cabinet lighting were mentioned as likely differences for the release version\u2026 and now, we have a look at how those appear in practice, thanks to this updated cabinet render that has been revealed:<\/p>\n

\"Alpha<\/a><\/p>\n

The main difference on the lighting appears to be that blobs within the camouflage will be backlit, as opposed to the edge lines that it had before. The marquee also looks like it was likely downsized (or weighted) a little from what it was previously; as noted on AH before, there were complaints from setup crew that it was on the heavy side during IAAPA preparations. If there are more changes, they are probably \u201cunder-the-hood\u201d and not visible here (e.g. the addition of the final level, which hasn\u2019t been seen yet, other minor hardware adjustments).<\/p>\n

Stage names: Ice Blizzard \/ Desert Gorge \/ Boss Battle<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The other update on Alpha Ops VR Strike to mention is that pre-orders for it are confirmed to be open now. The game is still expected to be releasing to the industry around April, or May at the latest, but if you want to have this one upfront you can get in at the ground floor on it already with Sega Amusements. The pricing is fairly competitive with other VR arcade machines at around $39,995, but it sounds like that shouldn\u2019t be a problem for any operators who were able to grab SAI\/3MW\u2019s previous virtual reality hit VR Agent<\/em>, which has earnt well for those with it.<\/p>\n
