Flat2VR Studios is working on bringing the beloved roguelite shooter Roboquest into the VR realm as their next big project.
Flat2VR team expressed enthusiasm in VR-ifying Roboquest due to its dynamic gameplay elements like double jump and rail grinding.
The COO of Flat2VR, Eric Masher, flew to Sweden to persuade Starbreeze Entertainment for an official VR port of Roboquest, which was quickly approved.
The CEO of Flat2VR, Jasmine Uniza, mentioned the extensive work involved in physically modeling guns for reloading mechanics in VR.
Flat2VR is focusing on optimizing game mechanics, including UI adjustments like placing ammo counters on guns and tweaking the minimap for a more immersive experience.
The studio aims to expand its VR projects to various platforms, including Surviving Mars Pioneer, Out of Sight VR, and more.
Roboquest VR is expected to launch on major VR headsets in Fall 2025 and will be available on platforms like Quest 2, Steam, and PlayStation Store for PSVR 2.
