Okay, so let me just dive right into this because, honestly, there’s a lot going on, and somehow it’s all kind of fascinating. So, there’s this game on the way—Eldramoor: Haven in the Mist. Yeah, the name’s a mouthful but hang with me. They’re launching a Kickstarter soon. Next week, I think. I keep mixing up dates, so who even knows. Anyway, they’re reviving this VR world that kind of fizzled out—Orbus VR, anyone remember?
So, June 24th, that’s when they hit the “go” button on all this crowdfunding hype. Like, imagine launching a VR MMORPG. But not just any, it’s going to rock on Quest 3 and SteamVR headsets. Next year. Or maybe later? Time is such a blurry concept, isn’t it? Oh, and the team behind it—Resolute Games—like, they’re not just randoms. They’re actual ex-Orbus players. Makes me wonder if there’s a hidden nerd club of VR game creators. Probably is, let’s be real.
Anyway, picture this: You’re in Eldramoor, following some legendary hero, Eldranis or something. Kinda like every fantasy ever, right? But there’s darkness creeping back. Of course, there is. Always is. You get to battle, socialize, even do mini-games at a tavern. Drinks not included. And speaking of drinks, uh, are we supposed to fight darkness with beer pong? Food for thought.
So, Resolute’s offering up a character smorgasbord—Warrior, Mage, Monk, Alchemist. Sounds like a D&D campaign I once tried to start but never finished. Relatable? The usual raid and dungeon stuff, and, get this, fishing! Who knew virtual fishing could become a thing?
Then, the fun part—money talk! They’re gunning for the same initial goal as another VR wonderland, Zenith. That’s $25,000. Chump change, or the dream fund? Depends who you ask. But hey, it could be the next big thing or… you know, not. VR MMORPGs have kind of flopped before. Remember Orbus? RIP.
And there’s this plucky survivor, Ilysia VR. Also, a Kickstarter hit. It’s still updating and doing its thing. Kinda comforting to know someone’s still out there living the dream, right?
Souza, the head honcho, throws in some nostalgia on Discord, talking about the good old days of Orbus and how this new game’s kind of birthed from fan love. Feels a bit like an excerpt from a gamer’s diary, honestly.
Anyway, expect to maybe dip your toes into the alpha pool late 2025. Beta’s somewhere Summer 2026, like a mid-year blast. Or simmer. Depends on what you’re into.
You curious? Well, wait for that Kickstarter. It’s live June 24th to July 24th, and if you’re the wish-listing type, check out their Steam page. You know, assuming you’re not sidetracked with other wild virtual adventures.
