Indie developers Chipo y Juan have just unveiled their latest exciting project: a mixed reality game titled Detective VR, inspired by the cinematic intrigue of Minority Report. Set to roll out on Quest platforms next week, it promises to be an engaging experience for gamers.
Detective VR is scheduled for release on Quest 3 and 3S on February 27th. This immersive narrative-driven game allows players to manipulate time, gather evidence, and question witnesses—all within the comfort of their own living room using Passthrough mode.
The game takes cues from popular titles and films like Return of the Obra Dinn, Immortality, and Minority Report. Players will find themselves challenged by unreliable testimonies, demanding that they navigate a blend of mixed and virtual reality to get to the truth.
Exclusively launching on the Quest platform, Detective VR promises around five hours of engrossing, story-rich gameplay. The game’s mechanics enable players to rewind, pause, and replay scenes, uncovering hidden clues tucked away in the timeline. Gamers will engage with six fully motion-captured and voiced characters, adding depth to the interactive experience.
The cast features familiar faces from acclaimed series such as The Crown, Succession, and Doctor Who. The talented lineup includes Luke Mably, Angus Wright, Melissa Bright, Hannah Wright, David Clark, and Bryony Byrne—names that fans of these shows might recognize.
Based in Marseille, France, Chipo y Juan have previously gained attention with several VR ventures, including the narrative experience VORTEX VR on Quest, alongside their contributions to various art exhibitions.
For those eager to delve into the mysteries of Detective VR, pre-orders are now open on the Horizon Store for Quest 3 and 3S. The game is available at a discounted pre-order price of $24, before it increases to the full price of $30.
