Eve: Valkyrie and Eve Online developer CCP Games has just taken the wraps off Gunjack, a brand new VR game being made exclusively for Samsung Gear VR in Unreal Engine 4.
Like everything CCP, Gunjack is set within the Eve universe, and while there are certainly some similarities to Eve: Valkyrie, it appears to offer a more focused VR experience, with an emphasis on shooting and combat, rather than full-on space flight. Players take on the role of a gun turret operator on a mining vessel, and as part of the ship's defence team is tasked with protecting the rig from pirates and other would-be attackers.
Naturally, Gunjack is played from first-person perspective, with the announcement trailer showcasing some of the rather splendid Unreal Engine 4 visuals. CCP describes the game as a "first-person arcade shooter," which suggests that players will largely be moving around on rails, especially when coupled with the control limitations of the Samsung Gear VR platform.
