Archiact unveiled today The Forgotten Chamber, an ominous virtual reality entertainment experience, now available as a free download from the Oculus Store, for the Oculus Rift.
Experience true chills through the power of true binaural audio as a spirit whips past you in a blur of shadow and sound. Gaze-driven exploration allows players to step inside the ominous ruins without the need for a controller—where every turn is packed with ghastly thrills.
Watch the trailer now:
“Immersed in a fully 3D VR environment featuring intense binaural audio, players will explore the uncharted depths of an ancient emperor’s tomb, and attempt to unravel its many dark secrets. But beware: some secrets are better left forgotten.
Initially developed as a contest entry for a film promotion, the development team at Archiact felt the piece deserved to be re-crafted and released as a full and free experience. Now, The Forgotten Chamber features a new story, updated visuals and voiceover. The cohesion of audio and visuals is key to connecting the player to their experience; gaze-driven exploration allows players to step inside the ominous ruins without the need for a controller. This compliments The Forgotten Chamber’s most powerful feature: true binaural audio that draws players into hair-raising 3D soundscapes. Players pause mid-step, straining to hear anything beyond the crackle of their radio, only to have an otherworldly shadow whip by them in a rush of sound.
“When building a new experience, we’re focused on two things: hitting a bar of high-quality and creating engaging, memorable VR content,” Jennifer Dowding, Senior Producer at Archiact, says. “Chamber was a passion project and we hope the Oculus audience enjoys it as much as we did making it.”
