Eden-Tomorrow_2017_10-30-17_004.jpg_600.jpg

Eden-Tomorrow is a fantastic journey through an unknown world in virtual reality, taking the player on an odyssey full of wonders and horrors.
It is a new, story-driven sci-fi VR game with easily understandable yet challenging gameplay where the player has to prove their skills both in unravelling mysteries and timing.

Updates/New Trailer:

- Doom VFR Aim support Confirmed, timestamp: 2:56

Compared to playing Doom VFR with motion controllers, I quite preferred the feel of the PS Aim controller which brings more intuitive aiming and makes wielding some of the game's massive two-handed weapons, like the Plasma Rifle, feel far more natural. Holding a weapon like the Plasma Rifle in a single hand hand (with Move controllers) just feels wrong from an immersion standpoint since (in VR) it lacks the mass implied by its form.

- Skyrim VR Smooth movement with Move First look, timestamp: 0:49

- Farpoint New Expansion ft. PvP, Progression System, timestamp: 3:25

- League of War VR Arena
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUFr15FoHGM

Featuring local co-op, Players will have access to 12 different units, four of which can be deployed at one time. These include soldiers, tanks, flamethrowers, artillery and helicopters, all which need to be carefully deployed on the battlefield to win. Each unit takes a certain amount of energy to deploy, depending on how powerful it is. When a unit is ready, players simply pick it up, put it down on the battlefield, and watch it go zipping off to destroy the enemy's base.

Eden tomorrow peaked my curiosity. Moss and ultra wings look great.

CaptainUnderpants · Oct 31, 2017

Really really want to get Sprint Vector but I'm terrified that I won't be able to handle the motion.

And yeah, many thanks for compiling all this Matt.

Loudninja · Oct 31, 2017

It was yet another fantastic show for VR.

Deleted member 984 · Oct 31, 2017

Was already interested in Ace Combat 7, Moss, and Ultrawings. Now I will have to add Apex Construction, Sprint Vector and Blood & Truth to my watch list.

Still have no idea what Star Child is though.

Planet · Oct 31, 2017

Great collection of info there, thanks Matt! Happy to see the continued developer support there, some interesting stuff incoming. :]

Dashful · Oct 31, 2017

Yeah awesome job getting everything together. London Heist pseudo sequel and Apex have me hyped. Sprint Vector has me curious to see if I can handle it.

And of course Moss looks as charming as ever.

That was a pretty healthy showing. The London Studio game looks like a must-buy.

Maligna · Nov 1, 2017

Pretty healthy showing. But I'm still mostly just hyped for Skyrim. It's all I can think about.

That the next big one ,and it look great too.

ranmafan · Nov 3, 2017

Was very happy with the vr showing at pgw. But yeah like so many, I can't wait to get skyrim vr. Especially now that move free movement is in and the impressions look so good. Can't wait. Blood and truth and moss looked great too. Pretty excited for all the games truthfully except for doom which is not looking so hot right now to me. Will wait on that one. But really excited for psvr games coming up

Crumpo · Nov 3, 2017

Do we know when the revised sku is going to be released? Hoping I can pick up an "old" unit cheap on BF...

Not sure about the rest of the world but the revised unit was released a few weeks ago in Japan.

I believe that VR has a permanent place in gaming and the showing at pgw is very good. Though there isn't a game that solidifies a purchase for me (also waiting for the psvr 2.0), Skyrim sounds amazing in vr! I still listing after 6 years or so everyday at work to skyrim music (jeremy soul playlists on youtube) because its so relaxing.

Aztechnology · Nov 3, 2017

I played a lot of Sprint Vector on the Vive at Pax Prime this year. It was an absolute blast. Assuming the polling/motion tracking for the PS move controllers is accurate/good enough (I'm sure they've compensated for any issues) it will be a perfect fit. It's actually a surprisingly good workout too when you're really getting into it. All I know is we had to pump our arms like Madmen. The way it works is you kind of grasp at the air, and pull it behind you. As though you were reaching up, grabbing a rope and yanking it backwards. Takes a lot of skill to get really good.
