Gotta admit, I didn’t even see this coming. So there’s this new VR game, Reach, that nDreams Elevation just tossed into the spotlight during the Future Games Show—seeing its debut game splash like this, well, it’s kinda unexpected. nDreams is calling it their “most ambitious” thing yet. Bold statement, huh?
Reach is shaking things up with some wild parkour action and epic face-offs against big ol’ mythical baddies. They’re saying you can leap, climb, and zip-line like some kind of ninja astronaut… I mean, just imagine trying not to trip over yourself in VR. Watch the trailer if you want—it’s got that free-wheeling vibe, like nDreams’ previous plays, Fracked and Synapse. If you squint, you might even spot some familiar tricks.
Anyway, they say you get tools to carve your way through this shifting world, every move you make shaking things up. Intriguing, right? Full details apparently unfolding on June 10th at the VR Developer Direct—mark your calendar if you’re into that sorta thing.
Oh, and guess who showed up to talk it up? Shuhei Yoshida! Yeah, ‘Shu’ himself… For real, a gaming legend. Him giving a thumbs-up? That’s no small potatoes. He dropped some love for Reach, and honestly, when he says it blew his mind, you kinda lean in. I mean, imagine playing a game and feeling all-powerful—who doesn’t want that?
And Glenn Brace, the guy leading the studio, mentioned this whole goal about making players feel in charge of every single action, pushing VR to new heights. Sounds like they’re trying to rewrite the VR playbook. Fingers crossed they pull it off.
Oh, looking to wishlist it? Scope out the Horizon Store, PlayStation Store, or Steam. But, maybe you’re like me and just gonna scribble it on a sticky note for later. Anyway, that’s that.
