The Rise of Orion Drift: A New Frontier in VR Gaming
The masterminds behind the VR sensation Gorilla Tag have unveiled their latest creation, officially named Orion Drift. This new project aims to elevate the social dynamics of Gorilla Tag to unprecedented heights.
Another Axiom, the indie studio responsible for the viral success of Gorilla Tag, has boldly ventured into uncharted territory with Orion Drift. A recent teaser offers a tantalizing glimpse into the game’s innovative features.
Building upon the renowned arm-based locomotion system of Gorilla Tag, Orion Drift introduces players to a futuristic realm where they inhabit robotic avatars. However, the true game-changer lies in the enhanced social interaction and gameplay experience.
Set within expansive space stations, Orion Drift accommodates up to 200 players simultaneously, providing a plethora of arena spaces for various games. From intense matches reminiscent of Gorilla Tag to sports-inspired challenges like ‘Tackleball’ and ‘Rocket Race’, the options are endless.
Players can explore diverse areas within the space stations, including virtual golf courses, pickleball courts, and obstacle race events like ‘Scrap Run’. The game’s modular design hints at future expansions and player-driven customization possibilities.
Furthermore, Orion Drift offers a unique level of player agency, allowing users to host servers, design stations, create custom rule sets, and even craft their own game modes. The promise of a level editor adds another layer of creativity to the mix.
In a stunning finale to the teaser, the vast expanse of multiple interconnected space stations is unveiled, hinting at a universe of endless possibilities for players to explore and engage with.
With a nod to the seamless social structure of Gorilla Tag, Orion Drift reimagines virtual interactions as a journey through interconnected space stations, fostering a sense of community and exploration.
While the release date for Orion Drift remains uncertain, interested players can sign up for a closed early access period on the official Discord server of Another Axiom. Stay tuned for more updates on this groundbreaking VR experience.
