Sony promised it would show five new titles for PS VR2 on last night’s State of Play, and top of the list is none other than a first-person/western shooter called The Foglands.
Developed by independent studio Well Told Entertainment, this game takes players through a smog that surrounds the underground community they live in. The idea will be to enter this dangerous fog with the hope of obtaining rewards, all in the service of a mysterious stranger.
The synopsis of the story (according to PlayStation Blog) is as follows:
“In this world completely shrouded in smog, you are part of a community forced to live in an underground bunker, called The Hold. Within the community, there are scavengers who maintain the survival of their shelter, called Runners. These Runners are the few brave enough to face the dangers of the Fog.
“The story begins when you play as a new Runner on his first mission, which ends in complete disaster. Then you meet a peculiar guy who wants to make a deal. A mysterious character nicknamed The Outsider. He promises you a lot of blessings, rewards, and as many opportunities as it takes to hunt down a large creature that directly threatens your home. With your goals aligned, why not make that deal?”
As for when The Foglands will arrive on brand new hardware, all we’re told is that the game will be coming to PS VR2 sometime in 2023. If not, we can expect more details later in the year.
