Speaking to PC Gamer at PDXCon, Introversion co-founder Mark Morris stated that whereas Scanner Sombre is coming to VR, it will “just be nuts at the moment” to solely deal with VR-exclusive video games. Introversion’s Defcon VR was downloaded by “about seven people” says Morris, so whereas the know-how is thrilling, it simply isn’t viable to solely make VR video games in the intervening time. Instead, Introversion selected to launch Scanner Sombre as a standard PC sport, after which make it VR-compatible as soon as a player-base had been established.
According to Morris, “we deliberately didn’t want people thinking Scanner Sombre is a VR game”, so as to cease folks merely avoiding the sport altogether as a result of they didn’t have a headset. I do think about that taking part in Scanner Sombre in VR would be the definitive expertise although, with its caves feeling all of the extra claustrophobic when gamers have an precise headset on.
The present plan is to have Scanner Sombre prepared for the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive in about six weeks, so anticipate an official announcement from Introversion by the top of this month. If you need to go exploring within the meantime, Scanner Sombre is accessible on Steam for $11.99/£eight.99.
