Adr1ft Showcases The Potential Of Virtual Reality

 

Designed from the ground up for virtual reality, Adr1ft is set in Zero G, allowing you to float through the beautiful wreckage of space.

 

ADR1FT_03-CR“Your goals are simple: to stay alive  and get home. You accomplish that by floating though this destroyed space station atmosphere in zero gravity and repair your suit and the mainframe computers on the station in order to turn on the emergency escape vehicles.”

It’s also a game set in Zero G, which means you’re not limited to standing on a floor and being confined by walls. 

The game was designed to be played in a single sitting. It’s not a 60 hour or $60 experience.

Although publisher 505 Games will release Adr1ft on Windows, Xbox One and PlayStation 4, Orth said the game has been designed from the ground up for virtual reality and will be playable on Oculus Rift, Sony Morpheus and the HTC Vive.

“We know we have something pretty special with this VR game,” Orth said. “It touches people in ways that the traditional game version doesn’t, and that was really unexpected for us. But we don’t know what the best Adr1ft virtual reality experience is yet.  We’re still building that.
