Alright, so there’s this game, Arken Age, right? It’s been around on PSVR 2 and PC VR for a bit, but now it’s making its way to Quest 3 and Quest 3S this November. And honestly, it’s one of those games that just sucks you in. Like, if you’ve played VR games and thought, “Man, I wish more of them felt, well, more real,” this might just be your jam.
So, here’s the thing. The folks who made Arken Age—they totally get VR, you know? It’s like they’ve been playing VR games for ages (pun intended, ha) and picked up all the best bits. Remember Stormland and Lone Echo? Yeah, those legends with hands-on gameplay. Arken Age gives off those vibes. Almost like you’re smack dab in the middle of a VR dream.
Oh, and talk about moving around. Combat? Yup, both with weapons and your bare fists. And there’s climbing too—like, not just vertical but whoa-type vertical. The kind of climbing where your brain’s telling you you’re doing something impressive.
The graphics? Sweet relief! Most VR games look sorta blurry, but Arken Age holds its own. Sure, it’s not exactly like the tethered versions, but hey, it’s better than the usual Quest stuff. There’s a trailer somewhere that shows this, and it basically says, “Look here, I’m not average.”
The game only works on the newer Quest 3 and 3S, which makes sense (‘cause Quest 2 is like ancient history now). November’s when it hits Quest, although no word yet on how much cash you’ll need to throw at it. But you can wishlist it and be the first to know when it drops. Cool way to keep your finger on the pulse, yeah?
