GoodbyeWorld Games and Skybound Games have announced that their BAFTA-award-winning title Before Your Eyes is releasing on PS VR2. The PS VR2 version of Before Your Eyes will release on March 10, 2023, and pre-orders for the game are now live. The game will cost $14.99 on the new VR headset. In anticipation of its PS VR2 release, the developer has released a brand-new trailer for the game as well which showcases the game running on the new headset. Check it out below:
In Before Your Eyes, you will find yourself in the company of The Ferrymen who are tasked with locating souls and transporting them to the afterlife. While sailing to their ultimate destination, you will reflect on your own character’s life, the choices they made, and the moments that defined who they were. This is the first time that you will be able to embark on this amazing journey in VR as it will allow a new level of immersion in the game’s beautiful and evocative world as it uses PS VR2’s groundbreaking technology in unprecedented ways.
Graham Parkes, lead writer, and creative director for GoodbyeWorld Games commented:
As soon as our team heard the news that PSVR2 would have eye-tracking, we began fantasizing about a VR version, and once we began work on it, our excitement only grew. This is going to be the most magical way to experience this story, for both existing fans and newcomers alike.
What sets Before Your Eyes apart from other VR games is that you can control the entire game through your eyes. The new edition uses the VR headset’s front-facing camera to create a one-of-a-kind immersive story. Players will learn to control the flow of the narrative with eye-blinking and head tracking, making this the first time that Before Your Eyes can be played without controller input. By combining its innovative blink interaction mechanic with a charming world and a fully voice-acted story starring Sarah Burns, and Eric Edelstein, Before Your Eyes is a deeply emotional and relatable journey where we place impossible expectations on ourselves and the regrets we carry with us.
Ian Howe, Managing Partner, Skybound Entertainment also added:
The response towards Before Your Eyes since its initial release in 2021 has been incredible, and the team have continued to innovate the way players can interact with this game, first via a computer camera and then through mobile devices and now in virtual reality. With multiple award wins, this game is a critical success and has been embraced by players across the world. We’re excited that this passionate audience will continue to grow with this release on PlayStation VR2.
Before Your Eyes will be released on PS VR2 on March 10, 2023, and pre-orders are now live worldwide. The game was originally released back in 2021 and has won plenty of awards since then making it a must-play title on the upcoming PS VR2.
