AUGMENTED EMPIRE Announced by Coatsink Exclusively for SAMSUNG GEAR VR

A story-driven tactical RPG VR game coming in 2017

‘Coatsink is one of the UK’s biggest VR devs, and 2017 sounds like it will be a significant year for the company’ – UPLOAD VR

Coatsink, the creators of the critically acclaimed VR titles Esper and Esper 2, are pleased to reveal their latest VR title, Augmented Empire.

Augmented Empire is a story-driven tactical RPG set on the island of New Savannah, an isolated neo-noir city divided into three tiers by the ‘Citizen Grade System.’ While the citizens deemed of high societal value live in luxury at the summit, outliers and criminals are forced to live in squalor at the island’s depths.

From the armchair of their secluded hideout, the player uses simple look-and-click controls to instruct their team of 6 augmented misfits in a world rendered as an ‘augmented reality’ diorama before their eyes, while interacting with the office around them to investigate new developments, make calls, and develop the skills of their team.

Battle law-makers and law-breakers alike to mastermind the revolution. Who will control the Augmented Empire?

Augmented Empire will be exclusively launched on Samsung Gear VR in 2017.
