Beware demo is a popular and thrilling open world driving simulator, and the game demo is now also working in VR with an existing VR Mod! Grab the Beware VR demo and enjoy it all weekend :) More info about the Beware VR Demo I played: Beware is currently in early development. At the base, it's an open-world driving simulation where the player embarks on a long journey of information-gathering through exploration. One of the gameplay elements are intense, 70's movies style, car chases with challenging AI opponents. There are stealth element too where you can avoid being detected and explore the world undisturbed. Play Beware in VR on your virtual reality headset, by following these steps: 1. Download this template which turns unity games into vr https://github.com/Eusth/VRGIN.Template/releases 2. Download the Beware demo https://www.indiedb.com/games/beware/downloads/beware-demo 3. Extract all the files in the VRGIN folder into the game's folder. 4. Drag the game's .exe file onto the .IPA file 5. Start Beware VR by opening the newly created (patch and launch) file Notes: - You can change a few options in-game (press ESC for options while sitting in car and standing still). The main menu will be a normal menu wrapped around you like virtual desktop but once you press start (with mouse) the game loads after a few seconds and its working quite awesome in VR! - There are some graphical glitches, and the fog seems not to be working in this release, but have in mind this is an early build of Beware VR - it will get better and probably get native VR support soon! - Only keyboard button steering is supported, but you can maybe map all the necessary buttons to a gamepad manually with some software.

‘Elite Dangerous: Beyond – Chapter Two’ to Arrive on All Supported Platforms This Month

Elite Dangerous (2014), the open universe MMO space simulator from Frontier Games, is getting its next chapter soon which will include a new ship, a few new mechanics, and improvements to existent systems. Frontier today announced Beyond – Chapter Two will be launching for free to all Elite Dangerous players on all platforms on June 28th.

Update (06/01/18): Along with the new chip,(‘Alliance Challenger’), Frontier is also bringing a selection of new wing missions, installation interactions, new settlements to explore and, more ways to combat the Thargoids.

“This is the first of the two smaller installments coming as part of the Elite Dangerous Beyond series of updates, with a larger one coming in Q4 of this year, bringing Squadrons and improvements to Mining and Exploration, and much more,” the company says in a press release.

Check out the new updated trailer below:

Original article (02/20/18): Chapter One is the first update to Elite Dangerous’ third season, Beyond, following the Thargoids assault on humanity’s starports which took place in Horizons, the game’s second season.

According to a Frontier forum post, the studio will be bringing four Beyond updates to Elite Dangerous which they say will focus on “adding new content, uncovering and progressing the mysteries of the galaxy and enhancing existing core gameplay experiences.”

Elite Dangerous supports HTC Vive and Oculus Rift on Steam, and for Rift on Oculus Home. As for traditional monitors, ED supports PS4, XBOX, and PC.

Frontier says they’ll have a more detailed rundown on all of the changes coming in the 3.0 Update on their forum in the near future. Here’s the current list of features coming in Beyond – Chapter One:

• New Ship: Chieftain – Elite Dangerous Horizons Commanders will also be able to take to the stars in the new Alliance Chieftain, designed not only to dish out punishment, but to avoid it. Manufactured by Lakon Spaceways, the Chieftain is more maneuverable than ships of similar size and weight, and its combat profile means it can more than hold its own in a fight.
• Improved Core Mechanics – Chapter 1 of Beyond will bring improvements to some of Elite Dangerous’ core mechanics, including accessibility enhancements to the engineering mechanics, an overhaul of mission rewards and big changes to Crime and Punishment. We’ll be sharing more information on the changes to Crime and Punishment, and the Engineers in a future post here on the forums and in the livestreams mentioned above.
• Wing Missions – Chapter 1 of Beyond will give you the chance to take on wing missions with your fellow Commanders, sharing both the efforts and rewards. 
• Revised Trade Data – Commanders will now be able to access trade data from systems they have previously visited, in order to make more informed decisions when shipping goods across the Milky Way. 
• Planetary Visual Improvements – Chapter 1 also includes the first of the planetary visual improvements coming as part of the Beyond series of updates (with more surface level improvements coming later in the year) bringing a new vibrancy to the Elite Dangerous galaxy. 
• GalNet Audio – With the introduction of GalNet Audio, you will be able to catch up on the latest news from across the galaxy without ever leaving the action.

Sqaure Enix’s ‘Tales of Wedding Rings VR’ is a Revolutionary Blending of Manga & 3D Anime

Sqaure Enix just released Tales of Wedding Rings VR, an experience for Rift that lets you engage with the popular Japanese Manga in a whole new way.

Expertly blending 3D rendered anime with traditional manga, Tales of Wedding Rings VR takes you through the story of Satou, a mild-mannered high school student, and Hime, a self-proclaimed princess from a world unlike our own.

Cast in the iconic monochrome tone familiar to manga fans, you’ll follow Satou as he traverses fully realized 3D environments and makes the difficult decision to give into his unrequited for Hime—all shot through what Square Enix calls a ‘LiveWindow’ which takes the standard static manga frame shots and pushes it to its logical extreme with its sweeping camera shots, closeups, and 360 environments that envelope the user so you experience the story in the first person.

To boot, since you have a frame as context during moving scenes, it’s an extremely comfortable way of watching the action unfold.

 

The entire story takes around 30 minutes to watch, and includes the original Japanese voice overs accompanied by speech bubbles, either in Japaneses or English. While I’m not really one for manga love stories, Tales of Wedding Rings VR is a truly a revolutionary way of experiencing a narrative from the third-person perspective. As an opening gambit, Tales of Wedding Rings VR is incredibly high quality as well, giving it the potential to spark an entire VR manga genre based on the experience’s innovative melding of written word and 3D action.

According to an Oculus blogpost, the Project Hikari team spent “years designing a signature sound for Tales, complete with original score and sound effects, all recorded on-location in Japan.” An ensemble cast of voice actors, motion capture, and immersive spatial audio truly bring the manga to life.

“After months of prototyping, it became clear to me that VR would evolve into a gateway to new worlds,” says Project Hikari Lead Kaei Sou. “I was convinced these new worlds could be filled with rich narratives that capture people’s imagination.

Sou continues: “As a fan [of the manga], I’m always excited to experience my favorite titles in a new way,” notes Sou. “It’s important to me such adaptations remain true to the source material. This was the number one goal of the project—to make sure we don’t disappoint fans of the original work.”

Tales of Wedding Rings VR is now available on Rift for $20, and while it may be a steep price for some, it’s a remarkable step forward in storytelling tech to say the least.

Popular Mobile Shooter ‘Zombie Gunship’ Now Available Oculus Go & Gear VR

Limbic Software’s popular Zombie Gunship franchise is finally making its way from Android to VR in Zombie Gunship Raptor (2018), a first-person, helicopter-based zombie shooter for Oculus Go and Gear VR.

As the gunner of a heavily-armed gunship helicopter, you’re tasked with defending your base from an oncoming onslaught of zombies from all directions. Featuring active node sites where you can zip over to shoot, you’ll need plenty of gear, vehicles, and firepower to fend the waves of mindless brain-eaters.

You’ll have a powerful main machine gun, rockets for taking out groups of zombies, and large area of effect missiles for taking out the robust Titan zombies. You can take down the hordes using night vision, thermal vision, and IR camera vision.

Zombie Gunship Raptor also features an upgrade system “to ensure players can take their own path to increase their arsenal,” the studio says in a recent Oculus blogpost.

Besides the campaign mode, the game also boats a Survival mode which pits you against a never-ending swarm of zombies.

Check out Zombie Gunship Raptor, which is selling for $4, on Oculus Go and Gear VR.
