Crytek has released a new teaser trailer for its upcoming VR game, The Climb. The trailer reveals a rugged and expansive alpine landscape as the latest climbing location in the Oculus Rift exclusive and shows off more of the vertigo-inducing challenges that players can expect to encounter.
In the teaser, we get a glimpse of the snow-capped mountains, glassy lakes and fairy-tale castles that take inspiration from the Alps in The Climb’s latest VR rock climbing playground. Plus, the sunlight effects and realistic landscape provide a breathtaking backdrop that we think might cause a lot of players to stop and turn around frequently just to admire the view.Â
According to the game’s official webpage, the Climb “brings alive the excitement and thrill of rock climbing in incredible virtual reality. Players will scale new heights and explore stunning environments in a new gaming experience developed exclusively for VR, using the power of CryEngine.”
The Climb is due to release this year exclusively on the Oculus Rift VR headset. It is developed by Crytek, a German-based video game company best known for the Far Cry series. Their CyEngine is the basis for many games, and is known for pushing the graphical limits of hardware. For more information on The Climb, check out their webpage here.
