Left-Hand Path is Available Now on HTC Vive and Oculus Rift

Developer and publisher Strange Company announced that, Left-Hand Path, a Dark Souls-inspired room-scale virtual reality adventure and horror RPG where players hold the power of magic in their hands, is available now for $29.99 USD/€27.99 EUR/£23.79 GBP on Steam for Vive and Oculus Touch.

Check out the release trailer of Left-Hand Path, featuring some gameplay footage:

“In Left-Hand Path, players awaken in a cursed darkened castle with a tragic history full of never-before-seen, freaking scary-ass creatures that are after your skin. Armed with arcane powers and a thirst for exploration, players must wield their newly-found powers and explore to find even more powerful spells and rituals, while trying to stay alive long enough to solve the mysteries of Well of All Rewards.  

“Left-Hand Path is proof that you should be very afraid of things that go bump in the night and hide in the dark,” said Hugh Hancock, indie developer behind Left-Hand Path.” “I designed it to in a way that the story will compel you to finish the game even though your common sense will tell you to stop playing because you no longer have any shit left in your body to be scared out of you.”

Fans Agree – Early Access Build Received an 86% Positive on Gamer Steam Reviews.

“ I was lured in by its enchanting graphics and fantasy lore that just blends in so well with the story. They’re also horror elements I’ve jumped more in this game than any horror game I played with only two of the scares rigged.” – Knytron OMEGA

“My girlfriend said “this isn’t as scary as you said.” Then the very first enemy in the entire game attacked her. She screamed and tried to rip the Vive off, failed, and ran directly into the wall then fell on the ground.” – Deathdefy

“This game is right up there with Vanishing Realms. It’s the scariest game I have ever played and the graphics and sound are excellent.” – Montaigne

 “Left-Hand Path is not your traditional VR experience. This is a full 15-hour video game with immersive storyline written to sink you further into the game. This is not your grandma’s VR, and this is not a seated experience. You will need room to cast spells, avoid enemies and their weapons, peak into secret passages, and bring hidden items into view. This is a room-scale game only. Prepare to die and try not to soil yourself,” said Hancock.
