Arizona Sunshine Will Support SteamVR via the HTC Vive

The name may not imply it, but this is a horror game with zombies and stuff.

The virtual reality revolution continues. One of the genres best suited to VR gaming is horror, and if you want to see just what one of those titles would be like in virtual reality, you are in luck- newly announced zombie shooter Arizona Sunshine will be releasing with full support for SteamVR and HTC Vive (the VR headset that Valve and HTC have developed together in collaboration).

“Arizona Sunshine is a VR shooter built and optimized for room-scale VR from the ground up,” the developer explained, which makes the game unique in that it’s not just a case of VR being tacked on to an existing product- this game was made from the ground up specifically to leverage and utilize VR. “Step into the midst of a zombie apocalypse as if you were really there, and defend yourself against enemies close enough to touch. A custom-built physical animation system makes striking your undead enemies more thrilling and satisfying than ever before.”

As of right now, all that we know is that the game will launch some time in 2015, but stay tuned to GamingBolt for more coverage and information.
