‘OVRDARK: A Do Not Open Story’ Launches March 27 on the PlayStation VR2 [Trailer]

Published

on

A year after it was first announced, NoxNoctis’ OVRDARK: A Do Not Open Story will arrive on March 27th for the PlayStation VR2 via the PlayStation Store. Ahead of the game’s release tomorrow, the devs have unveiled a new trailer that “[offers] a compelling glimpse into the horrific experience that awaits players.” A Steam release is also being planned.

From the minds behind DO NOT OPEN, OVRDARK puts you in the shoes of George Foster, a fearless investigator and companion of DO NOT OPEN‘s Mike Goreng, who ventures into Goreng’s mansion after the events of the first game. However, what he encounters is far more sinister than anticipated. As you delve into the dark depths of the mansion, you’ll encounter the presence of Mike Goreng, who has now become your ruthless enemy.

In certain areas, you’ll need to rely on stealth mechanics to avoid Goreng’s detection, where both in-game actions and real-life movements are significant. These mechanics consist of two distinct challenges: one involves traversing an area slowly without making sudden gestures, and the other requires you to hold still for a few seconds without moving your hands or head.

OVRDARK also features spatial sound, connecting you intimately to every sound. Your PSVR2 controller will vibrate during heightened critical moments, low life supplies, and specific sequences. You’ll also be navigating puzzles with the PSVR2’s haptic feedback, signaling both success and missteps. OVRDARK prioritizes a seamless adventure by minimizing loading screens, allowing players to delve into the core storyline diminishing disruptions, exploring the vast mansion without interruption.

Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.

With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.

The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.

In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.

More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
