Combat Waffle, the creative minds behind “Ghosts of Tabor,” are gearing up for the release of “Silent North,” their upcoming virtual reality shooter that’s set to offer plenty of multiplayer zombie mayhem. Fans can look forward to diving into this immersive experience with early access launches scheduled for March on both Quest and Steam platforms.
Published by Beyond Frames Entertainment, “Silent North” whisks players away to the breathtaking Swiss Alps, where survival is the name of the game. In this universe, not only will you face relentless hordes of zombies, but you’ll also have to contend with other survivalists ready to kill and loot—just as desperate as you are.
Players have the option to band together with others or embark on this daunting adventure alone. The key to making it through is scavenging for supplies and standing your ground against what the studio describes as an “endless army of ravenous undead.”
“Featuring a mix of player-versus-player and environment-based challenges,” the game plunges you into unavoidable encounters with both fellow survivors and the infected. Whether you’re navigating through mountain terrain or open plains, every step is fraught with tension. You’ll need to engage in heart-pounding shootouts to stay alive, or rely on stealth to sneak past foes. Yet, be wary—there could be adversaries lurking, ready to ambush.
For those eager to jump into the action, pre-orders for “Silent North” are now open on the Horizon Store at a special price of $17, offering a 15% saving from the expected $20 launch cost. Additionally, the game is now available to wishlist on Steam, offering the same discount when it officially goes live.
As the March early access release approaches for Steam and the Horizon Store, details about its debut on other VR platforms such as PSVR 2 and Pico headsets remain under wraps.
In a recent update on February 21st, 2024, the studio noted that while they are aiming for a March release, the exact date is still being finalized. Keep an eye out for more announcements as the launch draws near!
