Blast to the beat with Audica in Early Access next month

Today, Harmonix announced that it will release an Early Access version of its newest VR music title, Audica, on Steam and the Oculus Store on March 7. The game will allow players to wield two blasters in order to shoot targets to over 25 different songs.

Armed with a pair of rhythm blasters, players step into Audica’s mesmerizing cosmic arena and shoot and smash targets to the beat of a hand-authored song. A flawless run with precise timing, accuracy and form will earn players one of the coveted spots on Audica’s global leaderboards.

With an electronic soundtrack that features tracks from household names, up-and-comers and, Harmonix originals, Audica maintains Harmonix’s reputation for delivering genre-defining soundtracks. Audica will feature 10 playable songs with four difficulties each when it debuts in Early Access on March 7 and will launch for full commercial release with a 25+ song soundtrack later this year. The first songs confirmed to be on the Audica soundtrack are:

• 1788-L & Blanke “Destiny”
• Alison Wonderland “I Want U”
• Donna Summer “I Feel Love (Afrojack Remix)”
• James Egbert “The Space”
• Savant “Splinter”

Over the course of Early Access, players will have the opportunity to shape Audica’s development including song selection, authoring and the development of new features and mechanics. Audica is expected to exit Early Access this fall.
