During the latest Meta Quest Gaming Showcase 2022, the company revealed brand-new footage for existing and confirmed games including Among Us VR, alongside fresh previews of yet unannounced titles.
Among Us VR gameplay revealed at Quest gaming showcase
For example, a more in-depth look at Among Us VR gameplay was provided during the stream, as well as a release date. It will be released later this year on Meta Quest 2, Rift and S, Steam VR and PlayStation VR.
Before Among Us VR, you might want to play the standard mode a couple of times, but did you know that Fortnite has a new Among Us-style game mode? In this mode, you can team up with up to 10 players who will play the role of agents of the Imagined Order. Plus it is possible to get free skins for Among Us. Download Among Us from Steam.
This new version of Among Us VR appears to be a major change in terms of the game’s balance. Rather than a top-down viewpoint, it uses first-person perspective. You’ll still need to complete activities around the level but you won’t be able to tell whether there’s someone else impersonating you. Sarcastically, during the voting phase, you’ll have the ability to point fingers at your teammates’ heads. Meanwhile, Schell Games, which collaborated on the virtual version, has teamed up with Meta Quest for three future projects.
A significant change made last year made a lot of gamers happy, Among Us now allows direct streaming to Twitch and Discord on Android. In addition to that if you have ever had trouble playing the game, check out our Among Us: What to do if you get Google Auth no token error guide.
NFL VR game is on its way
The first officially licensed NFL VR game, NFL Pro Era, has a gameplay trailer shown off by Meta. Developer StatusPro is attempting to make the experience seem more realistic by utilizing actual game data. You’ll assume the role of a quarterback and practice drills, study defenses, and call audibles in order to improve your skills. If you avoid getting sacked too many times, you may take your team to the Super Bowl. Alternatively, you may just enjoy catching with friends in a virtual NFL stadium. This fall, Nfl Pro Era (which includes all 32 teams and will also be available for PS VR), will be released.
Speaking of PlayStation VR, Moss: Book II which was initially available on the platform will be released on Quest 2 this summer by Polyarc.
