The stakes seem higher this time Moss: Book 2 gives Quill world-saving responsibilities.

Polyarc promises encounters with new allies and old friends on Quill’s second adventure. Quill has rescued her uncle Argus, but a new evil leads the Arcane forces in pursuit of our mousey heroine through the castle where her uncle was held prisoner. The story of Moss: Book 2 will pick up directly after the events of the first game. Developer Polyarc unveiled Quill’s next adventure for PlayStation VR during Sony’s State of Play stream on Thursday. Moreover the revamped titles will make use of the VR2’s eye tracking capabilities to make interactable objects glow when observed, which will prompt Quill to give scenario specific hints if you get stuck in a puzzle. The developers have also made use of the Sense controllers’ adaptive triggers in a bid to draw players deeper into the fantasy world.Quill, the lovable mouse hero of VR puzzle-adventure game Moss, will return in a sequel, Moss: Book 2. PlayStation’s shift to a two controller setup could make it easier to access the weapons inventory during combat, and streamline environmental interactions during puzzle sections over the original PSVR versions that relied on a PS4 DualShock pad. The VR2 upgrade will also have an increased field of view over the originals, and will allow players to use both hands while interacting with the mousy protagonist Quill by wielding each Sense controller independently. The update details how the Moss developer Polyarc has worked to make the most of the upgraded capabilities of the PlayStation VR 2 to remove some of the constraints placed on the series by its predecessor’s hardware.īoth games will run in 4K at 90 fps and will feature graphical upgrades including lighting and texture improvements, and will make use of foveated rendering to reduce overall demand on the system.
