SEATTLE – February 22, 2023 – Award-winning studio Polyarc announced today that the top-rated Moss and Moss: Book II VR games are now playable on PlayStation VR2, and coming soon to Pico Neo 3 and Pico 4. Fans of the acclaimed franchise and new players alike can now play The Game Awards’ “Best VR/AR Game” on the platform of their choosing, including previous releases on Meta Quest 2, PlayStation VR, and Steam.

• PlayStation VR2: Moss and Moss: Book II Now Available 
• Pico: Moss Global Release (excluding China): February 23, 2023
• Pico: Moss China Release: March 2, 2023

Both Moss and Moss: Book II leverage PlayStation VR2’s hardware technology to enhance players’ first-person immersion with revamped haptic feedback, improved visuals, eye tracking, and new game mechanics. The Pico ports also leverage the advancements of VR technology, allowing the team to bring over the enhanced graphics to those platforms so players experience the most polished versions of the games to date.

Features players will experience on the PlayStation VR2 hardware:

• Improved Haptics: Players can now feel the effects of world-shaking events, damaging attacks, and movement throughout the world. This additional head and hands haptic feedback gives the player a greater sense of presence and danger in the game, allowing them to feel even more attached to Quill, the game's brave young hero who players guide and partner with during the adventure.

• Two-Controller Setup: Playing with two controllers provides a natural feeling, allowing players to express themselves more freely in the world when reaching in to manipulate the environment, interact with Quill, or engage the weapon inventory system during battle.

• Adaptive Triggers: Actions will feel distinct to players as they experience the tension and weight of virtual objects while grabbing and moving them within the world. Breakable pots and barrels now respond to the amount of force being used, breaking apart once they’re squeezed enough to overcome the trigger's resistance.

• Eye Tracking: Interactive objects now emit a subtle glow when looked at. This allows players to quickly spot interactive objects during puzzles and throughout the game. Eye tracking also informs Quill where players are looking so she can offer hints if she figures something out before them. 

• Foveated Rendering and Increased Field of View: Moss and Moss: Book II run at 90fps in 4K, even with the lighting and texture improvements. That, along with the larger field of view, gives players a deeper sense of immersion.  

• Headset Rumble: Players will not only feel the effects of this during gameplay but also during cinematic experiences keeping them well immersed in the experience even when they are not physically reaching into the world throughout the adventure.
