A port of Stand Out: VR Battle Royale that currently has a demo for Gear VR and Oculus Go.
UPGRADE:
A spokesman for Nolo has confirmed to us that Survive: VR Battle Royale is a mobile game, that is, it renders on the phone or autonomous viewer in question. They currently have a demo available for Oculus Mobile with an exclusive map.
“Survive: VR Battle Royale is a phone-rendered 6dof VR game that runs natively on mobile phone VR viewers or on a stand-alone computer without the need for a PC. For now we offer the demo version for Gear VR (Oculus Mobile) that can run on your Samsung Galaxy phone or Oculus Go and which contains a new map built exclusively for NOLO. The mobile version has its own server for multiplayer gaming, so we can’t play with PC users like some cross-platform games.”
The round of funding they captured is precisely to promote this type of PC and PSVR ports for their mobile platform, in which we can already find some titles available, as he says.
As we are converting the PC version to the mobile version, all Gear VR and Oculus Go users who do not have a VR-ready PC can also access the Battle Royale 6dof VR experience. In addition to Survive: VR battle Royale, we also have many other 6dof mobile VR games on our Nolo Home app store. Some of them were originally developed for mobile, others are being ported from the Steam platform.
If we have the Nolo CV1 kit and an Oculus mobile platform viewer, then we can follow the Gear VR or Oculus Go tutorial to try the Survive: VR Battle Royale demo.
ORIGINAL NEWS (11/01/2019 12: 27):
Nolo is at CES performing a demo that features a battle Royale type game for your Home and your streaming technology, which allows you to enjoy PC games in any mobile virtual reality viewer. Live: VR Battle Royale it is a port of Stand Out: VR Battle Royale created by its developers (Raptor Lab) using the Nolo SDK to integrate it with Nolo Home, the platform they are promoting to offer 6dof content to mobile viewers users, so it does not seem to be a new title that runs on autonomous or mobile viewers, but an integration for their platform.
Speaking of the new 6DoF mobile VR game on NOLO HOME’s mobile VR platform, Survive: VR Battle Royale is the first VR Battle Royale game on mobile devices, with 6DoF tracking support and multiplayer online PVP. The developer behind this game, Raptor Lab, is the same team as the PC game Stand Out: VR Battle Royale. The game, which was awarded as one of the best VR games on Steam, was easily transferred to NOLO HOME in a short period of time via the NOLO SDK. Considering this is the first step towards mobile VR, NOLO VR has already collaborated with hundreds of VR developers and will continue to bring more quality 6DoF SteamVR experiences to the mobile platform.
Nolo received in May last year a round of 10 million dollars to promote precisely this type of adaptations of Steam VR games, thus ensuring optimal operation with its motion controllers and its platform that streams from the PC to our viewer. At the moment we have no more information about this port of Raptor Lab.
The Nolo CV1 kit to have absolute positioning in our mobile 3dof viewer, such as Oculus Go or Gear VR, is available on Amazon for€219. We can download Nolo Home from their website.
