It’s a futuristic fight to the death as Solaris Offworld Combat heads to VR this August

Today, First Contact Entertainment announce that it will release its upcoming competitive VR shooter Solaris Offworld Combat on Oculus Quest and Rift August 27, with a PSVR release afterwards. The game will challenge player with a futuristic setting and some sweet maneuvers.

From an official blog post:

We’ve been developing VR games for over 4 years now. We released Firewall Zero Hour, followed by its seasons of content, and prior to that, we released ROM Extraction. We’ve been imagining what the future of immersive gaming could be, and witnessed how it’s been represented in media, from Tron to Ready Player One. We’re striving to make the dream of immersive, multiplayer VR gaming a reality — one that you can experience in the present day.

Today, we’re excited to reveal the first Gameplay Trailer for our sci-fi multiplayer VR shooter:

As VR continues to expand its popularity thanks to platforms like Oculus Quest, we’re here to throw our hat in the ring. Solaris Offworld Combat is our vision for what futuristic multiplayer VR could be — right now!

The game will feature full player locomotion, unique weapon pickups, and the ability to slide, though the game will aim to be accessible for players. The developers have also hinted at dedicated servers and a continuous stream of Quality of Life and content updates. Stay tuned for more news here on Gaming Trend.
