As promised, tonight's State of Play was an opportunity to learn more about Horizon: Call of the Mountain, a virtual reality adventure set in the Horizon: Forbidden West universe. With PlayStation VR 2, the player will find himself in the shoes of Ryas, "a former warrior of the Shadow Carjas who hopes to redeem himself by investigating a new threat to Heliaum. Archery and Climbing hold no secrets for him, and both skills will be essential for him to survive, sometimes climbing the sides of perilous mountains, sometimes taking down powerful machines like the Stormmaw."
According to what we are told on the PlayStation Blog, the hero's abilities will improve over the course of his journey. "You will learn to master various tools and weapons, but also to use the different materials that the world offers you to create equipment adapted to all situations, it is indicated. But Ryas will not be alone. Along the way, you will meet various Horizon characters new and old, including Aloy."
In addition, Horizon: Call of the Mountain will also allow you to enjoy virtual reality on board a boat. "In addition to the main story of the game, Call of the Mountain will allow you to experience a particularly immersive river trip, assures the narrative director, Ben McCaw. Take a seat and enjoy the superb panoramas of the world of 'Horizon. But beware: Machines might try to get on board uninvited! The river trip is the perfect way for players using the PS VR2 headset to experience the magic of PS technology. VR2 to their friends and family, who can follow the adventure on a connected screen."
For the moment, Horizon: Call of the Mountain does not have a release date.
