Get ready to break a sweat as Pixel Arcade, the highly anticipated competitive VR platformer, makes its debut on Quest today. Crafted by the innovative minds at CJG Studio, this game invites you into a vibrant world of VR parkour where your skills will be put to the test. Leap through dynamic neon landscapes, all while vying for top scores on a global leaderboard. It’s not just about jumping from one platform to another, though; you’ll need to navigate obstacles like tricky lasers and bouncy pads that could abruptly end your meticulously planned route.
In Pixel Arcade, players face the challenge of completing ten distinct levels, each offering its own array of complex and spatial puzzles to solve. Progression leads to unlocking checkpoints, allowing you to cement your achievements and navigate the game more strategically.
Built upon the foundation laid by its predecessor, Pixel Arcade Legacy from 2016, this latest entry takes what was beloved about the original—the fun, engaging pixelated worlds—and expands upon it. Expect a host of visual enhancements and brand-new environments that demand thoughtful planning and execution.
At launch, you’ll be tackling these challenges solo, as multiplayer isn’t part of the initial release. However, CJG Studio has hinted at exciting updates on the horizon, promising multiplayer experiences, seasonal content, and more exciting additions to the game.
Pixel Arcade initially found its footing on Steam Early Access and now ventures onto the Quest platform. A trailer teases an upcoming version for PlayStation VR2, so fans on that platform should keep their eyes peeled for further announcements.
This article had a brief appearance back on January 31 when we first expected the Quest release of Pixel Arcade. Today, with the confirmed launch, we’re excited to spotlight this thrilling new VR adventure once again.
