Pixel Ripped 1989 is definitely one of PlayStation VR's weirder experiences and its sequel, Pixel Ripped 1995, looks set to continue that lineage. Out on PSVR tomorrow, this trip back to the 90s is apparently as grounded as it can be with rip-offs of gaming, TV, and movie classics.
Bárbara Framil, narrative designer and writer at Arvore Immersive Experiences, expanded on the concept over on the PlayStation Blog. "That means our players can relive glorious mundane moments, like fighting for the last copy of your favorite game at the rental store or beating your friend’s high scores at the arcade, while feeling like the star of a kid action movie with parents that could have come straight out of a family sitcom."
Pixel Ripped 1995 appears to feature old school, top-down JRPGs, a racing game, and some sort of fighting experience. This is surely going to be another weird undertaking, but it'll probably still be pretty good in the process. The original game was at least. Are you interested in playing Pixel Ripped 1995 tomorrow? Get nostalgic about the 90s in the comments below.
