Combat Waffle, the developers behind “Ghosts of Tabor,” is gearing up to release their next big VR title, “Silent North.” This upcoming game is designed to immerse players in a thrilling multiplayer zombie survival experience set to launch on Quest and Steam in early access, aiming for a March debut.
Published by Beyond Frames Entertainment, “Silent North” whisks players away to the cold, daunting heights of the Swiss Alps. In this eerie setting, you’re not just dodging zombies; you’ll also need to watch your back for other players ready to kill and plunder in true survival fashion.
Players have the choice to either band together or brave the desolate world alone. The objective? Scramble for resources and fend off an unending wave of bloodthirsty zombies, as described by the developers.
“In a landscape brimming with PVPVE (Player versus Player versus Environment) action, every encounter with other players or infected adversaries is unavoidable,” reads the game’s summary. “No matter where you wander, whether among the majestic mountains or through the vast plains, stay on your toes. Intense, heart-pounding gunfights are your constant companions in this struggle for survival. And stay alert because you never know who might be lurking, ready to pounce.”
Gamers eager to jump into this frosty fight can now pre-order “Silent North” on the Horizon Store for just $17—a sweet deal at a 15% discount from its regular $20 launch price. For those who prefer to wishlist and wait, Steam has also opened up the option for eager players, including a similar discount at launch.
Although the initial early access release is set for March on Steam and Horizon Store, details about when it might become available on other VR platforms like PSVR 2 and Pico headsets are still under wraps.
As of February 21, 2024, the developers have confirmed they’re aiming for a March release, though specific dates are still being finalized.
