Update: We’ve been informed that The Mage’s Tale will also be coming to PSVR at a future, undisclosed date — but inXile have confirmed that this version is currently “in development.”
Original: The Mage’s Tale, an Oculus Rift with Touch exclusive from inXile Entertainment, was one of 2017’s very best VR games. Now, the developer is announcing that it will be making its debut on HTC Vive through Steam on March 27th — less than two weeks from now.
For a lot of VR gamers, this is the kind of game they’ve been clamoring for if they haven’t had a chance to play it yet. The Mage’s Tale has close to a dozen hours of content, an innovative spell-creation system, excellent puzzles, exciting combat, and one of the most visually pleasing VR worlds to explore yet. After release the development team continued to support it with updates, including free locomotion.
When it releases on March 27th for Vive it will also include the recently launched horde mode for endless replayability, optimized performance, faster load times, and full smooth locomotion. It’s basically the same game, but it’ll be accessible on Steam for Vive users instead of just on the Oculus Home Store.
