VRFocus - Virtual reality (VR) is arriving at just the right time for the exploration genre. The further away from the ground-breaking success of Gone Home we get, the easier it’s becoming to criticise experiences such as Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture for favouring story over mechanics. But here comes a technology that’s set to give these controversial titles a shot in the arm, at least for the foreseeable future. One videogame that looks like it will certainly benefit from VR support is Pollen from the team at Mindfield Games.
Cloudhead Games has announced the VOIDSLAYER update for Pistol Whip, adding three new scenes in June for all supported platforms.
Recent findings in the latest PSVR2 software update, indicates that PlayStation is already starting to implement support for PC.
The icing on the cake would be if Sony / Valve allow for a Steam Link app much like it is for the Quest 3. Likely wishful thinking, though.
Viveport, the VR retail platform from HTC is now giving developers 90% of their game revenue, instead of a 70/30 spilt like Steam.
It could be free and it wouldn't matter at this point. There isn't really a PCVR Market and I say that as a PCVR user. It is modders and enthusiasts with a few retail products on Steam.
