0

Arca’s Path VR, a single-player VR maze game produced by Rebellion and developed by Dream Reality Interactive, is launching today on all major VR platforms including HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, Windows VR, PSVR, Oculus Go, Gear VR, and HTC Vive Focus.

As a controller-free game, you guide a curious sphere along its dangerous path using gaze controls. The physics-based world of Arca offers 25 levels, all dripping with a futuristic, geometric vibe with a chill soundtrack created by experimental electro music artist Raffertie.

Here’s Dream Reality Interactive’s summary of the title:

Tricked by a wicked android witch, you must seek a path home and escape the simulated world of Arca. Fully integrated across all major VR platforms, with intuitive hands-free gameplay. Arca’s Path VR is an atmospheric VR gaming experience

We got a chance to go hands-on with an early version of Arca’s Path at E3 this summer, and it really aims to dial you into the deceptively simple task of leading the ball from point A to point B. With its ambient soundtrack to underscore its slow, but deliberate gameplay, it decidedly presents a critical change of pace in VR for those moments when you just want to sit down and zone out.
