Developer The Outsiders and publisher Funcom have announced that in collaboration with Lab42 Games, they will be releasing Metal: Hellsinger VR to the PSVR2. It will be coming in 2024, though a specific release date was not revealed.
The original acclaimed rhythm shooter has been developed for virtual reality from the ground up in collaboration with Lab42 Games, to take full advantage of the potential of virtual reality.
According to the chief marketing officer of Funcom, Erling Ellingsen:
“Even when we were working on the original, we fantasized about how thrilling it would be to play in VR and many fans have been saying the same. Now that fantasy is coming true and there is no doubt: slaying demons to the rhythm of epic metal tracks, all in full-motion immersive virtual reality, is just as incredible as we imagined it.”
Metal: Hellsinger burns bright in virtual reality, with its meaty first-person gunplay, immersive world that pulsates to the rhythm of the music, and hypnotic, pulse-pounding gameplay flow. Aim dual pistols independently, reload manually, and slay to the beat with your blade. Whether you want to move in full virtual reality, use the joystick, or even play sitting, it’s all possible.
Stare down the hordes of Hell face-to-face on a thrilling ride to exact vengeance on the Red Judge, ruler of the Hells, in the full original campaign, voiced by Troy Baker and Jennifer Hale. With the Red Judge defeated, Archdevil Difficulty and Torment Challenges await.
