With PAX East 2019 due to begin later today in Boston, we're already getting the first trailers for the games that will be showcased there. Insomniac Games, for instance, will demonstrate their ambitious AAA open world VR games, Stormland. The game should release at some point this year as an exclusive for the Oculus Rift; meanwhile, check out below the official description and feature set for Stormland as released by Insomniac Games.
OVERVIEW
The Tempest shattered your android body. Now you must journey through an ever-changing cloudscape to augment yourself and save your friends. Explore an expansive world with complete freedom—bound up cliffs, glide across chasms, and fly through the slipstream with velocity. Detonate explosives, harness electricity, and wield makeshift weapons to overcome titanium sentries and monolithic guardians. Play single-player, or explore forgotten ruins together.
It’s time to reclaim your world.
KEY FEATURES
