Fallout 4 was wildly successful, as is to be expected from the latest entry in such an iconic series. The game actually outpaced Skyrim for Bethesda’s most successful game, and Bethesda is taking advantage of the latest in VR technology to bring Fallout 4 to the HTC Vive. Apparently their hard work has paid off, as AMD Vice President Roy Taylor has insisted that it will change the VR industry forever.

During the VR World Congress, Roy Taylor expressed his excitement and high hopes for a VR version of Fallout 4, saying that the game is a “ground-breaking VR title” that will “change the way we think about VR”. He went so far as to compare it to Mario and Sonic, really hyping up the game’s VR port and setting expectations sky high.

Will Fallout 4 VR be so groundbreaking that it’s the “Mario” of the medium? We’ll have to wait a few more months to see, but with such high praise I know I can’t wait to get my hands on an HTC Vive and work my way through the immersive wasteland all over again.

Analysts in the industry have reported that sales for VR headsets have not been as great as initially expected, but this is likely due to the lack of a fully-fledged title to tantalize the gaming populace. Taking one of the hottest games of the last few years and pairing it with cutting edge technology seems like sure-fire way to increase headset sales, but we’ll have to see.

Fallout 4 will be released this year (2017) for the HTC Vive.

On October 25, 2023, THQ Nordic’s Alone in the Dark reboot will star Killing Eve’s Jodie Comer and Stranger Things’ David Harbour. Comer will play Emily Hartwood, while Harbour will play Edward Carnaby.

The demo, loosely based on the 1992 original, is available for download from the PS Store. This prologue, starring supporting character Grace Saunders, is inspired by Alone in the Dark 2’s Jack in the Dark demo and allows you to explore the Derceto Mansion.

The showcase didn’t focus on combat, but previous showings have shown a frantic over-the-shoulder shooter, and developer Pieces Interactive promises a variety of puzzles. Depending on how much guidance you want, you can adjust the difficulty.

We’re excited about the final product. Alone in the Dark hasn’t been respected in recent years, despite its huge influence. A compelling reboot that updates the 1992 classic looks to put the franchise back on track.

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Realms of Ruin, a new real-time strategy game where players command one of four warring factions, is coming to PS5 in the grimdark future.

PlayStation’s strategy gaming renaissance makes us feel like we’re living in the best possible time for console gamers who love command. Realms of Ruin could be a cool addition if it succeeds. As fans know, Warhammer games are unfortunately inconsistent in quality, so we’ll reserve judgment until we see some gameplay.

Only eFootball was more universally hated. Balan Wonderworld and Babylon’s Fall are other villains in that awful rogue’s gallery.
