Water Planet Announced
January 26th, in the year of our Lord 2017- Miami,
USA -- Miami-based music label and games publisher, The
Revera Corporation, announced today that Water Planet, their
immersive audio-visual VR game developed by in-house music
artist, VIRGO, is coming to PC, HTC Vive and Oculus Rift via
Steam this Summer.
Water Planet is an immersive first-person VR exploration game
set on a beautiful and mysterious distant blue planet, not too
dissimilar to a future Earth. Players will take on the role of
an interstellar traveller, gathering resources to fuel their
interplanetary expedition into the unknown. Amid endless oceans
and mountains that cut through dense fog, lie hidden temples and
monuments just waiting to be discovered. Players must uncover
the planet’s many mysteries, as the on-board A.I., Gemini,
guides them through sunken ruins and ocean depths, whilst
pumping the atmospheric synths, arpeggiated basslines, and
dreamy vocals of VIRGO’s Water Planet E.P.
Starting life as a visual accompaniment to VIRGO’s energetic and
unique live performances, Water Planet has been developed from
the-ground-up with unmistakable visuals inspired by the sweet
sounds of VIRGO’s signature Ocean Tech style, amalgamating
house, trance and future beats music genres.
After a successful Steam Greenlight campaign thanks to the
overwhelming support of the Steam community, Revera Corp’s debut
VR experience will be making its way onto the platform by
popular demand. Fascinated by the intersection between
technology, music and art, Revera Corp wanted their debut title
to deliver an experience in harmony with each of these elements,
creating the ultimate audio-visual VR experience for gamers,
technology fans and music lovers alike.
“Water Planet is a powerful example of the environment we’re
creating for our artists. We want to enable them to cross the
sound barrier into the visual world and tell their stories in
the most immersive medium we know: Virtual Reality.” - Jason
Cole, Project Director, The Revera Corporation.
