Serious Sam is 18 years old today. It was on March 21st, 2001 that Serious Sam: The First Encounter hit the shelves. Quite literally, as digital distribution was still a distant future back then.
We were young, super passionate and, after a successful tech test launched in the summer of 2000, confident that Serious Sam would resonate well with the gaming community. Turns out, we were right. Serious Sam: The First Encounter caused quite a stir in the gaming community, won dozens of awards (including Gamespot's Game of the Year) and laid the foundation of everything Croteam is today.
Fast forward 18 years later and Serious Sam got numerous sequels, spin-offs and remasters on most platforms. Hell, we even sent Sam to virtual reality and as with everything else - had tons of fun doing so.
Even though he's 18 years old (and legally allowed to buy a beer here in Croatia, finally), Sam's still going strong and we can't wait to take you on another journey of chaos and mayhem with Serious Sam 4.
Until then, we'll raise a glass (of aforementioned beer) in Sam's name and celebrate all of you for being Seriously awesome. Whether you've been demolishing hordes of aliens since day one or just joined our community we thank you for supporting us from the bottom of our hearts!
BOOM GOES THE ALIEN!

Serving as a prequel to the original indie and Game of the Year sensation, Serious Sam: The First Encounter, Serious Sam VR:BFE takes place during the Earth’s final struggle against Mental’s invading legions of beasts and mercenaries.
Key Features
- Now available in glorious VR! - "basically the same game but the devs just ticked a magical checkbox for VR"
- Serious Sam Fusion 2017 integration - play cross-platform with players of the pancake version to find out what's the ultimate combo: hi-tech motion controllers or good old keyboard & mouse
- True locomotion support - teleport, instant teleport, blink teleport, classic full locomotion (with or without comfort mode). Gamepad or keyboard & mouse support? Supported, too! Long story short, the only thing that isn't supported is that VR bike. At the moment.
- Dual-wield the Destructive Arsenal – A scoped assault rifle or the double-barreled shotgun? Automatic shotgun or the punishing minigun? Why not use both!? Unleash the almighty barrage of flaming cannonballs!
- Frantic Arcade-Style Action – Hold down the trigger and lay waste to a never-ending onslaught of attackers or face being overrun by Mental’s savage beasts. No cover systems, no camping – it’s just you against them. All of them!
- Steam Workshop – Submit your content creation or download new player-created content and modifications
- Multiplayer – Fight against each other or other teams in various multiplayer versus modes like Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Last Man Standing, Last Team Standing and Instant Kill. Or, you know, play nice and game together in Standard Co-Op, Classic Co-Op and Coin-Op Co-Op. Op op!
