It’s invigorating to be on the cusp, which is where we have always been. It’s an interesting pivot point in technology when things start to change.

“For someone who has been in business as long as I have, I am getting excited.

“I think that’s what other developers should be doing as well,” Miller said. He said Obduction is just the beginning of Cyan’s projects in the VR market, as he hopes that future titles will fully take advantage of the immersive strengths of VR. Miller said he is very excited about the future of VR. “It also feels like we are getting in on the VR at a time when it’s just perfect.” “We have gotten Obduction into a position where it is doing pretty good on the PC side and can do pretty good on the PS4,” Miller said. It scored 76 out of 100 on Metacritic, a review score aggregator. The game raised $1.3 million through the crowdfunding campaign.

Obduction started as a Kickstarter campaign in October 2013. Obduction for PS4, PSVR, and the Vive will arrive in 2017. Absolver, Dead Alliance and Obduction will be released on the PlayStation Store of the PlayStation 4 on the 29th of August in the North American region. If there’s one game on Kickstarter that I’m sure people have dreamed of making the transition to virtual reality it’s Myst.Obduction is available for PC and the Rift on Steam, the Oculus Store, GOG, and the Humble Store for the introductory price of $30. Although only concept art is currently available for show, there’s no doubt that the production design aspirations are there in abundance and the team have had no problems convincing people to help them make the game having met their $1.1M targe a few days ago.īut the team are now reaching out to the VR community for help in hitting their $1.3 million stretch goal-native Oculus Rift support designed and built in from scratch. So, expect lavish fantasy locations and fiendish puzzles-the hallmarks of the series. Myst spawned a genre and a myriad copy-cats in its wake and for some, it’s never really been equalled.Ģ013 marks Myst’s 20th Anniversary (yes, that’s 20 years, aged gamers) and some of the team (having formed new Dev Studio Cyan Inc.) behind Myst and Riven (Myst’s sequel) are ready to explode back onto the scene with a brand new first person adventure designed to be the spiritual successor to both. Mention that name to a thirtysomething and there’s a very good chance they’ll mist over, beginning to reminisce of a golden era of PC gaming and one of the most revered adventure series in the PCs history. First person adventure game Obduction has hit its Kickstarter target of $1.1M, but with only a few hours left until the deadline - can the final stretch goal promising Oculus Rift support be reached?
