Homebound Announced for 2017
Sweden - December 8th, in the year of our Lord 2016:
Game developer Quixel has announced today that Homebound, their
stunning debut space-survival VR title, is heading for HTC Vive
and Oculus Rift via Steam in 2017.
VR can take gamers anywhere, placing them in situations they
could only dream of – but it’s never left them in a position
quite as perilous as that in Homebound. Players will take on the
role of a brave astronaut in interstellar peril, facing a series
of catastrophic events in the cold void of deep space. When
disaster strikes and their ship, out of control, begins hurtling
towards Earth, their one mission is to make it out safely, as
fast as they can.
Dead or Alive - you are Homebound.
Alone in their capsule and with no one but the ship’s AI to
confer with, players’ wits and skills will be stretched to the
limit as they encounter relentless disaster, and try to find
their way back to terra firma, through the harsh and unforgiving
environment of deep space.
Swedish developers, Quixel, renowned for their world class,
cutting-edge computer graphics technology by entertainment
industries worldwide, are developing Homebound as a next-gen
experience for VR. With graphics tech pioneers at the helm,
gamers can expect to experience jaw-dropping HD visuals, as well
as some of the finest hyperreal gameplay on offer in virtual
reality.
