SUPERHOT’s time-pausing mechanic works so properly in VR, it’s a shock we haven’t seen extra video games use it to carry new and attention-grabbing stuff to life. Now, Omega Pilot developer XOCUS says it’s doing simply that with the discharge of Presentiment of Demise, a story-driven VR journey that appears like a mashup of SUPERHOT VR and archery sport In Demise.
Like SUPERHOT, Presentiment of Demise’s time dilation system means the enemy robots transfer while you transfer. The kicker: you need to draw your bow, which suggests you’ll have to essentially be your toes because the enemy arrows come flying in while you wish to return hearth.
We gained’t have to attend lengthy to play both, as XOCUS says it’s releasing the sport on SteamVR headsets on March 1st, with the promise that it’ll ultimately arrive on “all VR platform.” When, XOCUS hasn’t mentioned. Within the meantime, you may wishlist the sport on Steam right here.
Though it mainly seems like SUPERHOT with archery, the trailer reveals off extra than simply the identical frangible enemies, as there appears to be just a few totally different enemy varieties, together with a bigger tank enemy and and a number of other flying varieties too, which should ratchet up the issue.
It’s a disgrace the Superhot crew by no means bought round to creating its SUPERHOT: MIND CONTROL DELETE DLC VR suitable, or pushing any extra ranges to the VR sport, launched in 2017 and nonetheless sitting on the prime of most VR platform charts. Nonetheless, we’re hoping Presentiment of Demise can scratch that itch, if just for outdated time’s sake.
