Horror Bar VR | Press Release

 
On behalf of VR Factory we are thrilled to present our latest game - Horror Bar VR - fun and engaging horror game, that will premiere this Halloween on Steam.


After the huge international success of the Bartender VR Simulator, which is a virtual bartending course based on the real bartending experience, we decided to create our next and very own universe and start serving drinks and dishes to the most demanding customers so far… the undead.


Recently, a lot of people got stuck indoors on lockdown or quarantine and because of that zombies are simply hungry! How would they hunt for brainz if there is no-one outside? It’s about time to feed them with something bizarrely healthy, keeping a safe social distance using VR. Zombies are not made just for shooting and dismembering, they also love to hang out and snack on delicacies. Their palette might be a little odd, but who cares as long as you can turn a profit!  


Horror Bar VR is an incredibly engaging zombie bar simulator, where the player is put in the role of a bartender, serving horrifyingly delicious brain burgers and bloody drinks, using all kinds of different bartending techniques. In order to face up to the appetite of the guests coming into the bar, the player will serve dishes made from gluttonous creatures living at the bottom of the aquarium, fry cut fingers as french fries, or look after the steaks from an unknown source to serve them upon request… Many players may want to face a real challenge of cooking a dead rat which is considered a special delicacy here.


Horror Bar VR will launch on Steam Early Access and will have Career and Practice modes ready for anyone who would like to feel how it is to be a real creepy bartender on their daily routine, or just to try out all the available recipes to get better at your craft. Even though Horror Bar VR is served as an Early Access dish, players will have a full taste of content to play around with and this will enable us to use the power of the community to make an impact on the final outcome. As a thank you gesture to our players Early Access will feature a special discount price of $19,90 and the game in its full version within 4-6 months will cost $24,90.
Horror Bar VR on its launch day will have most of the key features ready with solid amount of levels in the Career Mode which should be about 4-5 hours of gameplay. The full version will have additional game modes, and even more levels and more zombies with fresh interactive animations and features. There are many dishes and drinks of all kinds to prepare in the Horror Bar VR, but there are also many situations that may surprise or frighten even experienced bartenders like running spiders or cockroaches, a bat trying to steal ingredients or severed hand suddenly appearing to knock over everything on its way.


A lot of features will be available in the Early Access phase while others will be added progressively but we also count on some inspiration from the community to create new and exciting gameplay interactions.
While making the Horror Bar VR we combined our current experience in creating a very immersive VR experience with creativity of our team and the incredible talent of our partners, who we invited into the project.


Concept Art was made by Krzysztof Roslan, an artist with extraordinary success, including the Oscar nomination for the Klaus project. The Soundtrack has been taken care of by Mikolaj Stroinski – who is responsible for the sound for many popular video games such as The League of Legends and The Witcher 3. To provide the highest production quality possible, but also a unique experience for the players we joined forces with the Mocap Games team, that with its commitment and knowledge breathed life into each one of our original zombies that will visit the Horror Bar. The cherry on top will definitely be the special sound effects, that our long term partner Patrick Multan was in charge of.   

 

Horror Bar VR is planned to be launched on all popular platforms. VR Factory will self-publish the PC VR version and we are open to cooperation with publishers, who would like to support us in building the brand that will position us among top VR brands of the world.
