Mixed reality made its mark during UVRSS24, and many new games promised an immersive experience right in your living room. As one of this summer’s generous showcase sponsors, Fortell Games announces the release of their room-scale, mixed-reality adventure, Holotanks, on the Meta Quest store via AppLab. Check out the official showcase trailer below!
You might be wondering, “Who is Fortell Games”? Based in Santa Monica and Kyiv, the game developer was founded in 2022 and comprises a team of visionaries and technologists with a passion for redefining how users engage with new game mediums.
Their objective is to leverage the latest advancements in mixed and virtual reality while creating compelling gameplay experiences for everyone. The technology behind Holotanks has been two years in the making and offers a room-scale combat adventure that transforms any room in your home into a battlefield full of enemy tanks to destroy.
Levels are uniquely created for players by considering their surroundings, including their direct playspace and any furniture in the room. The game was designed specifically to be used with the Meta Quest 3’s passthrough but supports the Quest 2 and Quest Pro. Holotanks offers eight different game modes including solo, PvP, and co-op.
In addition to the announcement of Holotanks hitting AppLab today, Fortell Games shared that they are currently developing another mixed reality experience, Blocksworld. Using blocks, players become the creators of their own worlds, bringing anything that they can build to life - in mixed reality, of course. There is a Late Pledge option for anyone interested in donating to the Kickstarter.
