SaysWho? Posted March 3, 2021 Author Share Posted March 3, 2021 PS VR action-adventure Fracked launches this summer BLOG.PLAYSTATION.COM It’s the end of the fracking world. Quote This is unashamedly a true VR game only possible with PS Move controllers! Climbing, ziplining, reloading and in-world interactions are all driven 1:1 by the player’s hands. We couldn’t do this using a traditional gamepad. Skiing requires you to physically lean to steer and control. As with the rest of the game it is integrated with the combat – we’ll be showing this in the weeks ahead. We have nicknamed the combat “run and cover” gunplay because it mashes run and gun action with an innovative 1:1 grabbable cover system to create an all-new VR-only combat style. Not only does it play differently to what you’ve experienced before, it feels different too. To maximise VR’s 360˚ potential and our free movement vision we have designed arena style combat encounters that double down on verticality. Whilst we have aimed for a new, stylish take on classic action cinema – think a 2021 version of Die Hard or Cliffhanger – below the surface there is a Robocop-style cutting-edge satire about corporate greed and the climate change emergency. If Paul Verhoeven made a VR game (which would be AMAZING), we don’t think it would be a million miles away from Fracked! The game is getting PS5 enhancements! Those playing on PS5 can expect improved framerates, loading times and resolution. For those playing on PS4 and PS4 Pro, never fear, it looks incredible and plays the same. We can assure you that it is a complete coincidence that the name sounds a lot like a popular/unpopular profanity. Quote And so is the gameplay – it is fast, exhilarating, and accessible. Skiing, running, climbing, base jumping and ziplining are all possible and all happen seamlessly and fluidly. No on-rails gameplay and cinematic cutscenes here, everything is 1:1 and driven by the player’s controls, movements, and actions. Combat is unconstrained too, combining free movement for outflanking foes with 1:1 grabbable cover and tactile weapon reloading. What we’ve shown so far is just scratching the surface – we can’t wait to show the breadth and variety of the game in the coming months.

BloodyHell Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I will definitely play this. Doom is one of my favorite series. I can't wait until VR is at the point where we can play games like Doom Eternal in VR. Playing something like that on nightmare in VR would be mind-blowing insanity.

This looks like it could be fun too. Any VR players out there who also feel strange when their arm is missing to their wrist? I imagine Shiro had the same problem at first though.

Unfortunately, the easiest way is bundled with Farpoint or Until Dawn: Rush of Blood. But I mean, I guess if you're getting it for the first time, it's a fine purchase; it's just weird that it's not individually easier to obtain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
