Ubisoft’s Eagle Flight Oculus Rift Game is Now Available

FunHouse, a division of Ubisoft Montreal, has just released its first VR game for the Oculus Rift. Eagle Flight is set 50 years after humans have disappeared from the Earth, in a land where the wildlife and nature have taken over and you’re set to explore the landscape of a post-human era Paris.

In the game, you play as an eagle, exploring the landscape, competing in challenges, and even enjoy competitive multiplayer as you face-off for capture-the-prey dogfights in up to 3v3 matches.

“At Ubisoft we care deeply about innovation and new technology, so we’re excited to release Eagle Flight, our first Virtual Reality game. Eagle Flight is a fantastic game for newcomers to VR and experienced players alike. The game is very intuitive, so novice players can simply boot up the game and fly at their own pace with ease. For more seasoned players looking for a more intense experience, they can jump into the single player challenges or into a multiplayer match where they will have to expertly navigate the streets, skies and underground of Paris as they try to capture their prey and defeat their opponents.” – Patrick Plourde, VP of FunHouse.

It certainly sounds like a unique experience, and I’m very much impressed with the concept for the competitive multiplayer aspects. If you’ve got an Oculus Rift, this sounds like an essential addition to your collection.
