CCP Games just announced that Gunjack 2: End of Shift, the sequel to one of the best-selling mobile VR games of all time, is launching today for Gear VR on the Oculus Store for about nine bucks, and it's getting the same price drop on Google Play.
To mark the game's release, they released a new trailer, and you can give it a watch below.
CCP will be releasing a bundle edition with both Gunjack and Gunjack 2 on Gear VR at a discount, so players can play both games on a single platform for the first time. Or, if you want to buy them individually, the original Gunjack is receiving a permanent price drop from $9.99 to $4.99 across all available platforms, whether that's Gear VR and Oculus Rift on the Oculus Store, HTC Vive and Oculus Rift on Steam, or the PlayStation VR on the PlayStation Store.
“Gunjack was praised for its breakthrough graphics when it launched on Gear VR in November 2015, and with Gunjack 2: End of Shift, our development team has raised the bar again for mobile VR games,” said Michael Lee, Gunjack 2: End of Shift’s Senior Brand Manager. “With broader availability, bundles and price cuts, we look forward to introducing many new players to the Gunjackseries this holiday season.”
Gunjack and Gunjack 2: End of Shift are fast-paced, space shooters set in the science fiction universe of EVE Online, using the Unreal Engine 4. As a turret operator with a heavy arsenal at your disposal, you have to defend a huge, interstellar mining rig and it's cargo from ass-hat bandits trying to ruin your day. Aren't they always?
As far as the VR goes, Gunjack 2: End of Shift is claiming to "seamlessly integrate intuitive motion controls with intense, full-immersion action for an unmatched mobile VR experience."
So that sounds good. Basically, you'll use the Gear VR motion controller to aim and shoot down swarms of enemies, strategically deploy special weapons, and activate energy shields to survive.
Give the trailer a watch, and find Gunjack 2 on the Oculus Store, Google Play, and Steam.
