From the armchair of your secluded hideout, control your team in ‘augmented reality’ to overthrow the corrupt elite in a game that blends compelling storytelling, stunning visuals and turn-based action.
Augmented Empire features updated 4K textures on Quest 3 headsets and 2K textures on Quest 2, as well as updated PBR and Dynamic Lighting effects that contribute to a better looking, higher fidelity and more cleanly lit version of the game. The game also features MR room tracking, passthrough and occlusion, MR hand tracking and VR controller support, spatial anchoring, improved combat minigames and achievements, among other improvements.
"We’ve made a ton of improvements to a game that people already loved, so this is the perfect time to play Augmented Empire,” said narrative designer Jon Davies. “Welcome to everyone who is visiting the world of New Savannah for the first time and to old players returning, welcome back!”
