Publisher Big Sugar and developer Ikimasho have announced Tiger Blade, a virtual reality action game for PlayStation VR2. It will launch in 2023.
Here is an overview of the game, via Big Sugar:
About
Tiger Blade is an ultra-intense virtual reality action experience that combines fast-paced sword combat and punchy gunplay.
Set in an alternate Korea, you play the role of a deadly assassin working for the Horangi chapter of the Tiger Clans. Ordered to steal a mysterious package from a rival chapter, you are shocked to find the object of the heist is a tiger cub. Thought to be extinct for a hundred years, the mythical creature is now desired by every gang in Sewoon and they’ll stop at nothing to take it from you.
Key Features
- Feel the Rush of Fast-Paced Combat – There’s barely time to catch a breath as you slash with your razor-sharp jingum, grab cover with your grapple hook, and pop-off shots from your pistol to take down gun-wielding grunts
- A High-Stakes Chase through Sewoon – Several distinct districts of the Korean city—such as marketplaces, docks, and alleyways—have been carefully designed to ensure the 10 action-packed stages feel both authentic and atmospheric
- Designed to be Highly Replayable – If you want to boss the leaderboards and be a true Tiger Blade master you’ll need to complete stages as fast as possible, take as few hits as possible, and collect all hidden medals
- Created to Leverage PlayStation VR2’s Exclusive Features – Experience a sensory thrillride as the heart-pounding, non-stop action is further intensified with immersive haptic feedback, dynamic adaptive triggers, and headset rumble
- A Killer Original Korean Hip-Hop Soundtrack – High-energy action demands high-energy music and that’s exactly what the K-hip hop soundtrack delivers, with tracks from artists including SINCE, Kitsyojii, Bryn, and Bruno Chapman
