![]() ![]() In the first game, action boiled down to some simple button inputs to make Quill swing her sword, with some Zelda-like quirks adding a little procedure to fights. Simply put, Book 2 looks like a much more interactive sequel, to the point where Quill appears as much a cooperative partner as she is a playable character. Developer Polyarc could have easily flicked autopilot on for this one.Ĭertainly, the studio has talked about “more”: more content, puzzles, connection, emotion and just about any other buzzword you might be able to think of, but how would that translate into something genuinely new? Having seen about 10 minutes of gameplay, I think I might have an inkling. That wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing - everyone has fond memories of their first adventure with Quill - but the rock-solid foundations laid out by the first game risked merely being expanded upon rather than truly evolved. I was worried Moss: Book 2 would be more of the same. The post ‘Moss: Book II’ Set for Summer Release Date on Quest 2 appeared first on Road to VR.We got a quick look at Moss: Book 2 ahead of its launch later this month, and it’s shaping to be a worthy sequel. So until we hear a more specific date from the studio, that’ll be our best guess! ![]() Conveniently that’s also a Tuesday (a common day for major game releases), which happens to be the same day of the week that the original Moss and Moss: Book II both launched on. 120 days from the PSVR release date of Moss: Book II would put us out to August 2nd. However, the original game launched on its first non-PSVR platform exactly 120 days after its initial release. So when will it launch? Well, Polyarc has only given Moss: Book II on Quest 2 a “Summer 2022” release date so far. Though the ‘narrated book’ story structure may have hindered the impact of the story and characters, Moss: Book II is a well rounded adventure you won’t want to miss. Sound is strong and animations are superb throughout, with one of the game’s enjoyable boss fights showcasing Polyarc’s animation prowess in particular. The game is polished to the brim with stellar art direction, with each segment of the game being its own detailed diorama with top notch composition. Generally speaking, it’s a longer and better experience than the original Moss thanks to the introduction of new weapons, mechanics, and more intriguing puzzles. Moss: Book II is a direct continuation of the first game in both story and core mechanics. In our review of Moss: Book II on PSVR we scored the game 8.5 out of 10 and summarized it as such: ![]() Luckily, if you find yourself in that boat, the original Moss is conveniently 20% off on the Quest store. ![]() Moss: Book II on PSVR picks up precisely where the original Moss left off-meaning, if you’re planning to play Book II, you should probably start with the original game first. That could be a boon for this game in particular, as Moss: Book II’s beautifully composed mouse-sized environments contain intricate details that could be easier to appreciate with the higher resolution display-though we’ll have to see if the game’s textures on Quest 2 can hold up to that added scrutiny. In fact, Moss: Book II is likely to look sharper on Quest 2’s higher resolution display (1,832 × 1,920 per-eye) compared to PSVR’s rather dated display (960 × 1,080 per-eye). The studio also showed the first look at the game as it will look on Quest 2.Īssuming that the trailer is showing an accurate representation of the game’s geometric and texture detail as it will run on Quest 2… it appears pretty darn close to what the game looks like even when backed by the more powerful PS4/PS5. Today during the Quest Gaming Showcase, developer Polyarc announced that Moss: Book II is due for a release date on Quest 2 this summer (a PC VR version, however, has not yet been announced). And now it looks like the sequel, Moss: Book II, which first launched for PSVR on April 5th this year, is set for a similarly quick jump to another platform. Having released to a strong reception on PSVR back at the end of March, Moss: Book II from developer Polyarc is set for release on Quest 2 this Summer.Īction-platformer Moss originally launched as a timed exclusive on PSVR back in 2018, but just four months later it made its way to PC VR too (eventually landing on the original Quest in 2019). ![]()
