Arizona Sunshine 2 is built from the ground up for VR and leverages the latest technology to set a new benchmark in VR storytelling and co-op survival with an all-new zombie-slaying carnage adventure. Jump in for the story, or join up with a friend to experience the thrill of realistic VR combat, with full manual reloading and physical handling of over 40 weapons; including an arsenal of fan-favorite guns, scorching flamethrowers, and a brand-new melee combat system that lets you wield anything from katanas to limbs to send the undead back to the afterlife.
 
Accompanied by your new friend Buddy, Arizona Sunshine 2’s cinematic story campaign will take you on a VR rollercoaster ride that will have you realize the apocalypse is not just about slaying your way through the end of the world; it is about finding companionship in dire times. And what better way to do it than with friends in the 2-player co-op campaign mode?
 
Launch also marks the beginning of the game’s Horde mode for four players, with three additional Horde mode maps confirmed to be released during Year One. Other post-launch updates include a free Quest 3 Upgrade for the Quest platform in December introducing real-time shadows on dynamic objects.

Pre-order Arizona Sunshine 2 now until the official launch on December 7th to receive time-limited in-game bonuses on Meta Quest, PlayStation VR2, and Steam VR. Furthermore, ordering the Deluxe Edition on PS VR2 and Steam VR will grant immediate access starting today.
