Eagle Flight Available Now on Oculus Rift, Nov 8th on PSVR
Ubisoft has announced that its first Virtual Reality game, Eagle Flight, is now available on Oculus Rift and will be available on PlayStationVR on November 8 and HTC Vive on December 20. Responsible for one of E3’s most entertaining live demos we’ve been excited about this one for a while now.
Developed by FunHouse, a division of Ubisoft Montreal, Eagle Flight is set 50 years after humans have disappeared from Earth, where wildlife and nature have taken over Paris. The game lets players explore one of the most visited cities from a new point of view, as a bird of prey. As an eagle, players glide past historic landmarks and weave through narrow streets and secret passages. In single-player mode, players refine their flying skills, learning new tricks by competing in challenges and in multiplayer face-off in a heart-pounding capture-the-prey dogfights for up to three vs three players.
Eagle Flight, developed specifically for VR, strongly focuses on accessibility and comfort. The game features a VR control technology breakthrough that provides players with natural and precise movement controls. With this breakthrough, players can comfortably hone their flying skills in order to achieve remarkable aerial maneuvers, and experience the true sensation of flight.
Eagle Flight marks the first virtual reality game launch for Ubisoft, who are also working on Werewolves Within, Star TrekTM: Bridge Crew and a VR partnership with the film company, SpectreVision.
