The wait is nearly over for fans itching to experience COLD VR, the eagerly anticipated follow-up to the iconic SUPERHOT VR from 2016. It’s making its debut on Quest and PC VR headsets next month, with a version for PSVR 2 coming shortly thereafter.
SUPERHOT VR left quite a legacy, being an innovative marvel in the VR space, yet it’s surprising that more developers haven’t tried to emulate its standout time-stopping gameplay. COLD VR, however, offers an intriguing twist. Instead of slowing down time, this new title does the opposite—you speed up. If you dawdle too much, time will pick up the pace, making the enemy AI even more unforgiving, challenging players to think quickly or face dire consequences.
In a recent reveal, developer ALLWARE shared a thrilling new trailer announcing their collaboration with Perp Games to launch COLD VR. It’s set to hit Quest and PC VR platforms on January 21st, 2025, with the PSVR 2 version to follow on a date yet to be confirmed.
The game doesn’t just bring more formidable enemies to the table; it also introduces players to new environmental dangers like deadly lasers, moving platforms, and unexpected twists that reward the bold. Each level is a fresh test of strategy and reflexes from the minds at ALLWARE.
Carlos Alfonso, a key figure at ALLWARE, expressed his enthusiasm: “Creating COLD VR has been a journey I’ll cherish forever. Partnering with Perp Games has opened doors I hadn’t imagined, bringing a distinctively engaging gaming experience to a broader audience. Their support means we can offer COLD VR on PSVR2 and Quest, turning what was once a dream into reality. I’m thrilled about what lies ahead for players!”
For those eager to dive into this fast-paced adventure, COLD VR is available for wishlist now across all platforms, priced at $19.99 / £14.99 / €19.99. You can find it on the Horizon Store for Quest devices, Steam for PC VR enthusiasts, and the PlayStation Store for those on PSVR 2.
