One of VR’s best MMORPGs, OrbusVR, is getting its long-awaited relaunch very soon. Oh, and it’s coming to Oculus Quest, too.
Ad Alternum’s OrbusVR: Reborn will launch on Oculus Rift and HTC Vive on April 23rd. Following that, a Quest version of the game will be arriving alongside the headset later this spring. The developer had previously said it was looking into a Quest post, and now it’s official. No PSVR announcement today, but the team told us it was looking into it.
OrbusVR: Reborn is a complete reimagining of the original MMO which launched in Early Access in 2017. You build your own virtual avatar and then journey into a fantasy world where you can team up with friends or meet strangers then go questing together. Reborn is considered both an expansion and overhaul, adding new classes, enemies, dungeons and raids for you to tackle too. In fact, Ad Alternum says the game will offer over 100 hours of content at launch. There aren’t many VR games that can make a claim like that.
We got an expanded look at the game earlier this year. It’s shaping up to be a very promising MMO, which is one of VR’s most requested genres.
Reborn’s launch will see OrbusVR leave Early Access. It’ll be free for anyone that already owns the original version. Not only that but, if you bought the game on the Oculus Store, you’ll get the Quest version for free too. OrbusVR is one of the games that will be supporting Oculus’ new cross-buy feature between the two platforms.
The game has no subscription fees, either. You pay once and then it’s free to play forever.
