The Persistence loses VR and gains all the platforms

The Persistence loses VR and gains all the platforms

Originally released as a PlayStation VR game, developers Firesprite have decided to rework the game and bring it back out, without the need for VR and the good news is it is coming to PlayStation 4 still, as well as Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch.

In The Persistence, players are tasked with surviving on board a doomed deep space colony starship in the year 2521. Said ship is overrun with horrific and murderous aberrations that make their presence known as players explore, evade and fight their way through the depths of an ever-changing labyrinth to bring the ship back to Earth.

“We’re excited and very much looking forward to bringing this game and universe we have created to new platforms for players,” said Graeme Ankers, MD and Co-founder of Firesprite Games. “The Persistence is a survival-horror experience designed to keep players on edge from start to finish, and with a procedurally generated environment forming around them, no two playthroughs are ever identical, meaning you will never find safety or security in the same place.”

“Firesprite has created such an atmospheric, intense, and massively enjoyable game in The Persistence and we are absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to bring it to new audiences across all formats,” adds Rob Edwards, Managing Director of Perp Games.

The game is hitting all three platforms this Winter, but no final date has been provided yet.
