On the sidelines of the announcement of the release date and price of PlayStation VR 2, Supermassive Games has lifted the veil on The Dark Pictures: Switchback VR, a horrific shooter that is reminiscent of a certain Until Dawn: Rush of Blood. Indeed, we are offered to embark once again on a roller coaster where the player will be confronted with the horrible demonic incarnations of witches persecuted in XNUMXth century New England, or with vampires from another world and trapped under the desert sands. We will also be entitled to a visit to the World's Fair Hotel where a sadistic serial killer is rampant. According to what we are told, a story will make the link between these different events.
Naturally, the various features of PlayStation VR 2 will be used to enhance immersion. For example, the haptic feedback will allow us to better feel each bump, each turn taken by our wagon, while the adaptive triggers will activate with each of our shots. "Avoid falling beams, overturned buses or even hanging witches, it is indicated. If you fail to dodge them, the return of the helmet will make you feel the full weight of your failure." The eye tracking will also be requested, the enemies only moving when you blink. As for the PS3's 5D audio, it will make the whispers of demons even more nerve-wracking.
Finally, Supermassive Games obliges, we are promised several branches that will increase the replay value of The Dark Pictures: Switchback VR. For the moment, the release date of the game remains unknown.
