And they’re all coming this year
With QuakeCon set to take place this weekend in Texas, Bethesda felt it a fitting time to let us know when some of its virtual reality projects would release. As it turns out, they’re all coming this holiday season.
In a press release, Bethesda revealed the following release dates:Skyrim VRwill launch on November 17 (PlayStation VR);Doom VFRwill launch on December 1 (PlayStation VR and Vive); andFallout VRwill launch on December 12 (Vive).
As for what these are varies by title. It wasconfirmed at E3thatDoom VFRwould be a separate game rather than a straight port ofDoom. That’s why it’s currently priced at$30 on the PlayStation Store.
However,Skyrim VRseems to be the base game with all the expansions, but ported to virtual reality. As such, it’s priced at$60 on the PlayStation Store. The same is true ofFallout 4 VRwhich isset at $60 on Steam.
Even though two of the three games here are simple ports to virtual reality, they’ll likely all sell well. These titles all have their charms, and there’s probably a decent cross-section of people who have already adopted virtual reality and would gladly play these games again.Doommay be the only new content here, but don’t discount how many folks would gladly wander the Wasteland and Tamriel again in a more immersive way.
