Sure thing, let’s get chaotic:

So, here we are – nDreams is at it again, cooking up what might just be their most mind-bending VR spectacle yet. Yup, led by this shiny new team they call nDreams Elevation. I swear, their teasers for this game, Reach, came outta nowhere last week and—real talk—they got me more hyped than I’d care to admit. Just to paint you a picture, think cinematic thrills, parkour madness, and a full buffet of VR-first action. Pretty wild, right?
Anyway—or maybe wait, let me rewind a sec. Matt Duff, the big design brain behind it all, gave this chat where he broke down Reach’s main mojo. Get this: it’s all about action, adventure, and presence. Whatever that truly means—though it sounds epic, doesn’t it? Apparently, they’ve flipped the script on VR movement. Imagine actually grabbing air and pulling yourself through space? Yeah, that sort of bonkers.
Oh, and yeah—jumping. I know—most VR games steer clear of jumping like the plague. Motion sickness, right? But they’re saying this gestural voodoo they’ve whipped up somehow makes you feel like it’s the real deal. Or so they claim. Not that I’m trying to jump out my chair with a headset on, but still.
Hey, quick side track: I saw this pic of Reach, and again, random thought, but the graphics look sharp enough to cut yourself on. Geez!
So, back to the game mechanics. They’re boasting about this Full-body Awareness thing. Which, correction…is FBA, not some other obscure acronym I thought I misheard. It basically means you’re not just some floating pair of hands in-game. Your whole virtual bod’s in on the action, apparently moving around like a real-live human. Honestly, might be what VR’s been missing all along.
Oh and—combat! They promise both sleek, silent takedowns and loud, crash-boom-bang options. Bows and arrows all tricked out, explosive, freeze, stun—imagine the possibilities! You could probably scare an enemy into next week or sneak around like a pro. Me, I’d probably flail about and somehow miss the target, but hey, A+ for effort, right?
Anyway—or maybe not anyway, actually—it’s gonna hit most VR headsets soonish. If you’re keen, go wishlist it on all the stores. Choose your weapon, well…platform, I guess.
And hey, keep an eye peeled for the trailer. If you’re like me, you’ll replay it a thousand times trying to catch every detail. Crazy stuff, I tell ya.
