We have already got a first look at Sony’s virtual reality device for the new generation. Specifically at his controls , so it remains to be seen what the helmet will be like. Meanwhile, we can already take a complete look at some of their titles.
Truant Pixel presents Runner , an arcade action title that can be played in virtual reality on PS5 and also on PC devices. Among his inspirations are cult works such as Akira, Ghost in the Shell or Patlabor . Here’s the trailer to see it in all its glory.
In Runner, we will take control of Mina, a rebel who is in the center of a huge persecution by the city of Presidium, capital of the mining colony of the moon N-351. The only way we’ll have to escape is the huge highway that runs through the complex , while we are pursued by the Caldara corporation.
With a soundtrack composed by Fat Bard, the visual style is unique, recalling the best moments of anime in the late 80s . Countless enemy drones, machines and vehicles will chase us while we ride our motorcycle, which can be customized in both its paint and lighting.
Of course, the further we advance in the title, the more vehicles with different characteristics we will unlock. Our main weapon will be a pair of automatic pistols , which will end the race of the rivals.
However, the arsenal will also expand. Be it through power-ups collected on the road, with laser and scatter shots, or with grenades and large cannons. Runner, despite its announcement, does not yet have a release date .
