[{"content":{"text":"CEO Jesse Schell<\/a> was inter\u00adviewed by Only Single Player<\/a> at the 2019 PAX West<\/a> conven\u00adtion in Seattle. In the interview<\/a>, Jesse discussed the back\u00adground behind Until You Fall <\/a><\/em>as well as how Schell Games devel\u00adopers designed weapons in VR to feel tangible without causing motion sickness.<\/p>Here\u2019s an excerpt of Jesse speaking about the inspi\u00adra\u00adtion behind Until You Fall<\/em>:<\/p>\u201cOne of the things that we feel about virtual reality in general that manip\u00adu\u00adlating things with your hands feel really powerful. Sword fighting is such a common fantasy we see in so many games, medieval combat is just something that people love. We saw that it hadn\u2019t been executed well in VR so we thought that this would be a great oppor\u00adtu\u00adnity to dive in and be able to make something that really lets you live out the sword fighting fantasy.\u201d<\/em><\/p>Until You Fall<\/em> is currently available for HTC Vive and Oculus Rift for Early Access on Steam<\/a>. The devel\u00adopers are updating players on patch and game updates through their 2019 Roadmap<\/a>. For release 0.2, the Rift S and Valve Index will receive support.<\/p>Jesse also spoke on releasing PlaySta\u00adtion VR and Oculus Quest support in the interview:<\/p>\u201cThe approach we\u2019ve taken for Until You Fall is basically, let\u2019s get it out on PC first, on Vive and Rift, and let\u2019s see if we can make that work. If it\u2019s working, then let\u2019s take resources to bring it to other platforms. For I Expect You to Die, we did exactly that. It started on Vive and Rift. It came to PlaySta\u00adtion VR and Quest. We want to have the same path here. If we\u2019re getting good traction with Until You Fall, we very much want to bring it to other platforms. So we\u2019re figuring that timeline out as we speak. Part of that is going to be what is the audience excited about? Even though it\u2019s a simple question, which one should we go to first? Should we go to Quest first? Or go to PlaySta\u00adtion VR first? My hope is to have both of those platforms added in 2020 but we don\u2019t really have a date set yet.\u201d<\/em><\/p>"},"id":"ef39ba1a-22d0-4ffa-a6db-b5dc9f8196a0","isHidden":false,"type":"textBlock"}]
