Oculus Quest: 120 Hz postponed, and many titles announced (Zombieland VR, Zenith, Floor Plan 2, etc.)
TheOculus Quest still occupies the bulk of VR news. The officialization of the PSVR2 and the next standalone headset from HTC finally promises a little competition, but before that, the Quest quietly continues to monopolize the field. The information of the day is the postponement of the 120Hz refresh rate (in beta) to the second quarter of 2021 … at best. Oculus had promised the availability of 120 Hz for this month of March, but obviously, the developers are a little behind …
The topicality of the Quest is also announcements of cascading games. Shortly after the solid came out The Climb 2, announcements of new titles follow one another. Zombieland VR announces itself as a wave shooter in the lore from the movie Zombieland. Admittedly, the realization is not what we saw best on Quest and the competition of the excellent The Walking Dead Saint & Sinners will undoubtedly be rough, but there is no reason not to give it a chance. Zombieland VR will be available during the summer on Quest, PCVR and PSVR.
The VRMMORPG Zenith looks pretty good, even if we quickly understand that the game is still in an Alpha version. Zenith will be available on Quest and PCVR at first, then a little later on PSVR.
Prehistoric survival Song in the smoke is arguably the most interesting ad of the lot. This title planned for Quest and PSVR will allow you to craft, hunt and fight in beautifully styled environments. Frankly promising. The game is slated for release this year.
After the Fall is a co-op shooter that will pit a band of mercenaries against hordes of zombies. The game is signed by Vertigo Games studio, to whom we owe Arizona Sunshine. The title’s release (no date yet) is planned first on PCVR and PSVR and later on Quest.
Star Wars Pinball will offer 8 pinball tables on the Star Wars theme. A Mandalorian table is planned and it will even be possible to customize your game room! The game will offer the following tables:
- The Mandalorian
- Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope
- Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
- Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi
- Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
- Star Wars Rebels
- Masters of the Force
- Classic Collectibles
Floor Plan 2 comes back and it’s a hell of a (and good) surprise! The crazy game from the studio Turbo Button will once again allow us to take the elevator to reach worlds blocked and filled with puzzles (one “world” per floor). The game will be released in April on Quest and PCVR. The PSVR version will arrive later.
