Gameplay

The player can freely move through levels and choose various methods to complete the game. With the two Oculus Quest controllers, the character interacts with game items and weaponry with two hands, and uses pipes, cables and ladders to move. The two controllers are used when shooting: for example, the player can effectively reload a shotgun with two hands or fire from a pistol while holding onto a cable with the other hand.

After the game was released, the development of a multiplayer mode was announced. Multiplayer is scheduled for release in 2020.

Plot

The protagonist finds himself at the abandoned research station Horizon, where he has to face many battles against hordes of zombies. Along the way, the player is helped by an unknown person watching him through the research complex's CCTV system and giving verbal hints. In the later levels, the voice unexpectedly starts trying to slow the player’s progress. At the end of the storyline, the game's protagonist meets the mysterious helper and learns their main secret.

Development

Death Horizon: Reloaded's developer is the London-based[4] Dream Dev Studio company. The game was developed specially for VR platforms and is available for the Oculus Quest. There are also versions in development for the Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, PlayStation VR, and Pico NEO 2.
