The Forest for Oculus Rift game will teach you to survive in the forest

Так или иначе вам придётся подружиться с местной флорой и фауной

The new game The Forest for a helmet of virtual reality Oculus Rift will allow players to fully experience for themselves everything that is experienced by people who find themselves cut off from civilization and left alone with nature.

This open world game studio SKS Games has already managed to make some noise in the gaming press. Still, after all, high-quality survival horror, and even for the Oculus Rift, simply cannot go unnoticed. Given the characteristics of this particular game genre, we can safely assume that the thrill of the players is guaranteed.

In the center of the plot of the crash, in which the protagonist is cut off from civilization on a mysterious island covered with dense forests. Graphically, the game looks quite decent: lighting, physics, great attention to the details of the environment - all this is present in abundance. Nevertheless, the beautiful nature surrounding the protagonist performs not only an aesthetic function. She helps him to survive and simultaneously challenges.


The game realistically recreates a realistic change of day and night. And if, in the light of the sun, the main character has to explore the island, build a shelter for himself, build traps, weapons and look for food, then at night he has to protect his home from invading predators, and even more terrible.

The survival system is pretty exciting. The player will have to cut down trees for the sake of wood, make fire, so as not to freeze, and also get food by any available means, including growing their own food from various seeds. In the game, you can build yourself a tiny hut or build an impressive improvised fortress on the coast of the ocean, which you can furnish in Feng Shui and decorate it on your own. The main thing is not to forget that nobody has canceled the ebb and flow and your fortress can easily wash off with water.

As for the enemies inhabiting the coastal forests, they are very numerous and varied. You understand perfectly well that the game will not be limited to wild animals. You are waiting for a collision with much more dangerous opponents, both on the ground and in the system of underground tunnels, which the main character, of course, wants to explore. It will be necessary to constantly use stealth-tactics in order to remain unnoticed, as well as various improvised weapons and traps in order to stay in good health whenever possible.

Take a close look at the first trailer of the game, which appeared in May of this year, and then compare it with the second trailer, which the creators posted on the Web just a couple of days ago. Of course, this is still a pre-alpha version of the game and a lot of things do not look exactly the way they should. But you must admit that if we see all this with the help of the Oculus Rift virtual reality helmet, you might think that the adventure will be impressive and very emotional.

The second trailer of the game sheds light on some details that had not been shown to the public before. Some development of the visual component of the game is also noticeable: the picture over the past six months has become better and more elaborate.

Of course, it will be possible to play the game on a regular monitor, so that those who do not have the opportunity to purchase an Oculus Rift, do not worry. The test alpha-build of The Forest is due to come out at the end of this year, so we are waiting for patience, because only a little bit is left.
