During the “Gameplay Showcase” event, Vertigo Games has released new information and visual material for the highly anticipated first-person shooter and virtual reality adventure game, Arizona Sunshine II. The sequel promises to take the experience to new levels with a focus on cooperative modes, post-launch plans, and more. Here you have all the details.
Arizona Sunshine II will feature full cross-platform online multiplayer functionality, a two-player co-op campaign mode, an Endless Horde mode for up to four players, and much more. The game builds on the foundations of its predecessor, but adds a wide variety of virtual reality interactions and mechanics, allowing for freer cooperative play than ever before.
In addition to the co-op experience, post-launch support plans were announced that include three additional maps for Horde mode that will be released during the game’s first year. More details on these contents will be revealed at a later date.
In an exciting announcement, an update for Quest 3 in Arizona Sunshine II has been confirmed on Meta Quest. From day one, Quest 3 players will enjoy improved resolution, and the update scheduled for December will introduce real-time shadows on dynamic objects, further improving the visual experience.
During the event, game director Peter Deurloo presented new gameplay of the single-player campaign, offering previously unreleased footage and revealing fresh details of the game. These include hints at the new standalone story written by Rob Yescombe (The Invisible Hours, Farpoint); Buddy, the new canine friend; and next-generation combat mechanics such as manual reloading, melee combat, and crafting.
At the Gameplay Showcase, several VR creators paired up to debut Arizona Sunshine II’s co-op campaign mode. They shared their experiences along with their new friend, Buddy, in long videos on their channels.
Arizona Sunshine II is scheduled to launch on December 7 on PlayStation VR 2, SteamVR and Quest, promising an immersive and exciting experience for virtual reality lovers.
