KillPixel Games and Slipgate Ironworks’ dark fantasy horror FPS WRATH: Aeon of Ruin is making the leap to VR. Teaming with Flat2VR Studios, WRATH: Aeon of Ruin VR – Brutal Edition will launch April 9 for PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 2 and 3.
Rebuilt and enhanced for virtual reality, this version of WRATH: Aeon of Ruin is driven by a simple philosophy: deliver a more visceral experience. You are the Outlander, pulled from the Ageless Sea and bound to a grim purpose by the Shepherd of Wayward Souls. Enter ancient ruins and dead forests, and tear through swarms that hunt in packs. Keep moving, keep firing, keep cutting, or the gloom takes you.
Powered by the legendary Quake Engine, players can expect enhanced dynamic movement, over-the-top combat, ramped-up bullet effects, and a “helluva” lot of blood. This edition also restores and refines the experience with wide-ranging improvements to combat feel, audio, effects, and overall polish. It is circle-strafing panic, close-range brutality, and constant decision-making. Which hand is clearing space, and which hand is landing the shot? When do you slide or dash, and when do you throw an artifact and take the opening it creates?
Non-VR gamers can find WRATH: Aeon of Ruin on PC via Steam and the Epic Game Store, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch.
