Virtual reality first-person shooter WRATH: Aeon of Ruin VR – Brutal Edition will launch for PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 2 and 3 on April 9, publishers 3D Realms and Fulqrum Publishing, and developers KillPixel and Flat2VR Studios announced.
Here is an overview of the game, via Flat2VR Studios:
About
The Old World is rotting. Its Guardians have fallen. The corruption spreads.
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. Tear through swarms that hunt in packs. Keep moving, keep firing, keep cutting, or the gloom takes you.
Brutal Edition is WRATH rebuilt and enhanced for virtual reality, driven by a simple philosophy: deliver a more visceral experience. 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’s the definitive way to play Wrath and you’re going to make a damn big mess doing it!
WRATH: Aeon of Ruin VR – Brutal Edition is built for speed and pressure. It is circle-strafing panic, close-range brutality, and constant decision-making. Which hand is clearing space? Which hand is landing the shot? When to slide, when to dash, when to throw an artifact and take the opening it creates.
