Melbourne, Australia – Experience the thrill of sailing no matter where you are when MarineVerse Cup releases on Meta Quest 2 on February 24th. Whether you are an advanced sailor or just curious to give sailing a try, MarineVerse Cup can help you learn the ropes, offer fun challenges, or just let you sail at a leisurely pace, surrounded by sea, sunshine and the sound of the waves lapping the boat. This definitive VR sailing experience is available to wishlist now and will be available for $19.99 / €19.99.

MarineVerse Cup features a host of different modes catering to all kinds of sailors and experiences. The game offers solo, co-op or multiplayer sailing, including the option to compete against friends and other players. There are also leaderboards, mini-games, daily practice races, leagues and seven spectacular locations from across the globe.

Created by a team of sailors and engineers, MarineVerse Cup is designed to bring the world of sailing to anyone who may not have the time, physical stamina or access to a boat to enjoy the sport - or you can brush up on and practice your sailing skills in the middle of winter! With differing weather conditions to contend with, such as varying winds with gusts and lulls, the many courses available will challenge you differently each time for hours of replayability and a real test on your sailing prowess.

"We are really excited about sharing our passion for sailing with the world on Meta Quest 2 on February 24th," said Greg Dziemidowicz, Lead Developer for MarineVerse. "Our original intention with MarineVerse Cup was to teach people how to sail, but we've also found that a lot of more advanced sailors love taking to the helm from the comfort of their own home. Whether you fall into the beginner or expert category, we hope you will wishlist the game now for Meta Quest 2 and we promise you an exhilarating experience!"
