Vertigo Games, der auf VR spezialisierte Publisher und Entwickler der Koch Media Group, und das VR-Entwicklerstudio Anotherway mit Wurzeln bei Microsoft Hololens und Activision, veröffentlichen am 14. April das erste „Riff Pack" für ihr die Bühne rockendes VR-Musikspiel Unplugged. Der DLC besteht aus Tracks von Gossip, Muse, Rob Zombie und Slayer und erscheint für Meta Quest und PC-VR*. Das „Riff Pack“ ist der erste Schritt von Vertigo Games und Anotherway um die Musikbibliothek von Unplugged regelmäßig zu erweitern.
Durch den Einsatz von Hand-Tracking-Technologie bietet Unplugged immersive Luftgitarren-Action zu den Melodien weltberühmter Rock-Songs. Mit echten Gitarren- und Verstärkermarken, einem erfahrenen All-Star-Rock-Team hinter den Kulissen und einer krassen Setlist mit über 20 Songs bietet Unplugged ein authentisches und aufregendes Gefühl von Rockstar-Realness. Das Spiel wurde von der Fachpresse mit den Awards für „Spiel des Jahres 2021", „Bestes Quest-Hand-Tracking-Spiel" und „Innovativstes Design" ausgezeichnet. Die Erweiterung der Musikbibliothek mit dem „Riff Pack“ war daher ein logischer nächster Schritt zur Fortsetzung der Unplugged-Welttournee.
Über das „Riff Pack“
Im „Riff-Pack“ schrammelt man sich mit Stil durch harte, klassische Riffs und spürt den Rock 'n' Roll, wenn man in die laute und energiegeladene Musik einiger der größten Rocklegenden aller Zeiten eintaucht. Wer steigt an die Spitze der Rangliste und wird der ultimative Luftgitarrist? Zeit zu rocken!
Das „Riff Pack“ enthält folgende Tracks:
● Gossip - Standing in the Way of Control
● Muse - Won't stand Down
● Rob Zombie - Crow Killer Blues
● Slayer - South of Heaven
Unplugged, von Vertigo Games veröffentlicht und entwickelt von Anotherway, ist für Meta Quest und PC-VR* zum Preis von 24,99 € erhältlich. Das „Riff Pack“ erscheint am 14. April für beide Plattformen zum Preis von jeweils 5,99 €.

About Anotherway
Anotherway is a newly formed VR development studio, founded in 2020 by Ricardo Acosta and Julia Casal. For many years, Ricardo and Julia worked as developers for major clients and agencies such as Microsoft Hololens and Activision. While these environments were ideal for learning and skill development, the two always felt a need to build something of their own, on their own terms, away from the corporate grid. During lockdown, they started working on their own passion project “Unplugged”, which seemed to really resonate with the VR community. Realizing the potential Unplugged held, Ricardo and Julia decided to break their corporate chains and chase their ambitious dreams. Anotherway was finally born. unplugged-vr.com.
