Facebook hosted its first Oculus Gaming presentation today. The biggest news that appeared at the event is that Lone Echo II has a launch time interval. It’s coming out this summer. Developer Ready at Dawn, which Oculus purchased last year, first announced the game in 2018 and we haven’t seen or heard much about it since, leaving some to worry about the state of the project. Oculus also shared a detailed look at its future Resident Evil 4 remastering.
In addition to the news about its iconic VR titles, the company had a lot of news to share about Star Wars. When Star Wars: Tales from the Edge of the Galaxy Part II will appear later this year, the game will introduce players to a new character, Dok-Ondar. The Ithorian made his first appearance in the Star Wars tradition with a mention in Solo: A Star Wars Story and he’s one of the characters you can meet at Disney Galaxy Edge theme park.
Meanwhile, fans can look forward to playing Star Wars Pinball VR when it appears on Oculus Quest, PSVR and Steam VR next week. Prior to the release, developer Zen Studios released a preview of the game. It will include eight tables, including two new ones, the studio designed specifically for VR. Of course, one of these inspires The Mandalorian. All meals will be available in a virtual space called Fan’s Cave, which you will have the chance to personalize with your favorite Star Wars memories.
When Facebook announced the showcase, it said there would be surprises and delivered. Nintendo 64 Jewelry Snowboard at 1080 ° receives a spiritual sequel from Giles Goddard, one of the programmers who worked on the original. Chuhai Labs, the studio that works on the game, has promised to share more details in the coming months. Until then, if you like more active VR experiences, you’ll want to check out the latest update for Climb 2. The game’s new Freestyle expansion pack, available tomorrow, introduces six new levels to check out, with another six to follow at a later date. All in all, VR fans have a long way to go between and until the end of the year.
