The Assembly – Out Now on PC

The Assembly, our first major release for high-end VR headsets, has now launched for Oculus Rift and HTC Vive! You can purchase it on Steam and Oculus Home, priced at $29.99 / €24.99 / £19.99.

The Assembly is our first-person interactive story for mature audiences, created from the ground up as a long-form virtual reality game. Our small (but growing!) team has poured more than two years of blood, sweat and presence into this game, having nurtured it from humble Oculus DK1 beginnings all the way up to the shiny new consumer headsets. Now that VR is finally upon us, we’re very excited for people to get their hands on our hard work.

Here’s The Assembly‘s launch trailer for you to enjoy:

A non-VR edition of the game is also available for Windows PC, priced at $19.99 / €19.99 / £14.99. Once purchased, you have the option to upgrade to the VR edition at any time in order to experience the game as originally intended.

You can also find The Assembly on Green Man Gaming, Humble Bundle, GamersGate, plus other popular digital marketplaces.

The Assembly is a first-person interactive drama for mature audiences, created from the ground up for VR headsets. An experience with two sides to everything, where the truth is never clear, and a question is always left open: When does the end justify the means?

The Assembly is a long-form, narrative-driven game designed from the ground up for your VR headset.  Freely explore intricate, realistic environments with intuitive, accessible movement controls as virtual reality immerses you within a game and its world like never before.

Uncover a morally dubious organization through a gripping and incisive interactive story. Face thought-provoking dilemmas with uncertain outcomes that challenge your views of the Assembly and its members, and which come to a head in one of multiple thrilling conclusions.

Explore the Assembly from the perspective of two different protagonists. As Madeleine Stone, face a bizarre induction program that seeks to test your potential, and as Cal Pearson make a series of shocking revelations that lead you to question the Assembly’s relentless pursuit of progress.

WE’RE HERE FOR YOU, VIRTUALLY

We always love hearing from you, our fellow gamers and VR enthusiasts. If you have any questions about our immersive interactive story in VR, feel free to send us a message via The Assembly‘s Facebook page or tweet us with the hashtag #TheAssemblyVR.

Qin Shi Huang leads China in Civilization VI

2K and Firaxis Games today revealed that Qin Shi Huang will lead China in Sid Meier’s Civilization VI, launching on Oct 21^st for Windows PC.

Qin Shi Huang was a ruthless leader, responsible for conquering and uniting the various warring states of China. He went on to become the nation’s first emperor in 221 BC.
During his reign, Qin Shi Huang’s military generals greatly expanded the size of China’s territory. Qin Shi Huang was known for enacting major economic and political reforms that helped bring standardization to the many varied Chinese states, as well as unifying each state’s walls into one singular Great Wall of China. Finally, Qin Shi Huang is known for building the world-famousTerracotta Army – a literal army of life-sized clay soldiers.

Unique Unit: Crouching Tiger Cannon
Gunpowder, discovered in China around 9^th Century AD, was initially only used for fireworks and celebratory activities; however, its application eventually spread to warfare. And so the “Crouching Tiger” was born, a rough prototype of a cannon that was essentially an iron tube, wrapped in thick rope and sealed at one end. The Crouching Tiger was reported to be in use throughout China in 1368 and even as late as 1592.

Unique Improvement: Great Wall
In Civilization V, any player could construct the Great Wall Wonder; in Civilization VI, the Great Wall is a unique improvement exclusive to China. While the idea of a wall is certainly not unique, The Great Wall of China is the most impressive, inspiring awe for over 2000 years.

For more information, please see 2K’s official Civilization blog: http://steamcommunity.com/games/289070/announcements/detail/879709710368041934
