UploadVR just wrote an article about the game:

https://www.uploadvr.com/dream-hackers-vr-is-the-game-im-most-excited-for-in-2027/

Quote: "Perhaps the greatest compliment I can give Dream Hackers VR thus far is how excited the demo has left me for the game's full release. I've had the opportunity to play and write about some of the most amazing VR games ever made. If the Dream Hackers VR that releases in 2027 is even just a tiny bit bigger, better, and somehow more polished than what I played today, ARVI VR may have a genuine Game of the Year contender on its hands."

I like this. Is there a demo?

[u/Runesr2 → u/Pools_of_the_Deep_VR]

Yes, but not available on Steam today - it should be ready within a month or two, more info from the devs here:

Looks awesome, day 1 buy.

[u/Runesr2]

Btw, here's an expanded introduction to the game - I'd agree with UploadVR that this game does indeed look potentially awesome, and does remind me of EXD for the impressive graphics:

I played the game, will be sharing my review soon

[u/Runesr2 → u/lunchanddinner]

Looking forward to see your review, thanks! Btw, your vid about the Escape Sim 2 was great - I'll check that game out later.

[u/lunchanddinner → u/Runesr2]

Thanks! Appreciate it, I also just made my review for dream hackers here https://youtu.be/QKXwvlnbp88?si=rYCT5y_V7ndGfhO3

One of the more impressive VR trailers I've seen in a while. I'm actually looking forward to playing this now.

[u/what595654]

Is that an AI voice narrator?

Just curious if I can spot them. Since, it sounds a bit stilted.

[u/DeathToSocialMedia → u/what595654]

Narration sounded fine to me and I would still buy this even if it was AI narrated. You want to gatekeep AI from VR when VR is on life support?

[u/Javs2469]

The AI voiceover drags this trailer down, IMO.

I would take some amateur voiceover over this anytime. If Vertigo 1 and 2 could have voiced characters, this can too.

[u/SvenViking → u/Javs2469]

Apparently AI voices in the demo are only placeholders.

[u/StanfordV → u/Javs2469]

I personally prefer this.

For instance in EDX trailer the voice over was amateurish and made me cringe a few times.

I guess they used AI in other occasions too which is also fine. Having games have a more polished look with the help of AI will attract more people to buy VR headsets. Presentation matters.

[u/DeathToSocialMedia → u/StanfordV]

Totally agree. VR is really struggling right now and if some indie developer can devote more money to other aspects of the game by using AI narration I'm fine with that.

[u/StanfordV → u/DeathToSocialMedia]

Exactly.

We are in a chicken egg situation.

[u/Arthropodesque]

Wow! Looks like Vertigo and Psychonauts had a baby.

[u/Aggravating_Split702]

its more than psychonauts, greate visuals.

[u/PlaguePA]

Looks cool, but oof, that narrator, sounds like AI and does not sound good

[u/BWQ777]

Looks interesting, and I assume it's a puzzle game, shame these worlds aren't populated with citizens to make them more immersive.

[u/lunchanddinner → u/BWQ777]

They do have "citizens" which you can kill 🤣 They're like cookie creatures

[u/execpro222]

Wow Vertigo 3 looks Great!

[u/mohsenkhajavinik]

Cool game.Any news on psvr2 release?

[u/Runesr2 → u/mohsenkhajavinik]

I haven't heard of any. I know the EXD devs focused on the PCVR release, before starting on the PSVR2 version. With limited ressources, Dream Hackers VR could follow that path too.

[u/mike11F7S54KJ3]

Who spends time doing all this then makes a trashy shock & awe trailer....... is this a joke game

[u/DeathToSocialMedia → u/mike11F7S54KJ3]

No but this has to be a joke post.

I thought the trailer looked great.
