New ‘Stormland’ Video Teases Weekly Missions & Content Reveals

6

Stormland, the upcoming Oculus exclusive from Insomniac Games, is headed to the Rift platform on November 14th. In preparation for the big day, Insomniac has released a new video showing off the first-person VR adventure’s ongoing content, which promises to mix up the world with weekly reveals of new challenges and environments.

The game, which boasts both single-player and drop-in / drop-out co-op for two players, apparently will feature a number of biomes to explore, including old-growth forests, deserts, rain forests, alien mushroom biomes, and volcanic areas—all of it dotted with human-made technology left to decay in their mysterious absence.

The video teases some of this ongoing content, saying that rewards can be had by scanning the environment for clues, hunting down enemy commanders, breaking into secure vaults, or looking for a cure for someone or something called ‘NYX’ (Nicks?).

According to an Oculus blog post, the studio will be releasing more teaser clips leading up to the November 14th launch, so we’re sure to learn more then.

In the meantime, check out the latest hands-on from Cas & Chary where we get a deeper look at what makes the game’s multiplayer tick.
