Space Junkies, the VR game developed by Ubisoft Montpellier and launched in March for PC (Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, Windows Mixed Reality) and PlayStation 4 (PlayStation VR), is now heading towards non-VR platforms as well. An Open Beta has been confirmed to take place from July 25 at 11:00 to August 7th at 11:00 (your local time) on PC via Ubisoft's own UPlay. Crossplay will be enabled, which means that VR and non-VR players will join the same matches seamlessly and across all platforms.
