Chipo y Juan, an innovative indie studio, is about to make waves with their latest mixed reality creation, Detective VR. Inspired by the thrilling world of Minority Report, this game is scheduled to drop on the Quest platform next week.
Detective VR unfolds its dramatic narrative on the Quest 3 and 3S starting February 27th. This unique MR game invites players into a captivating experience where the line between reality and virtual investigation blurs. In Passthrough mode, you’ll find yourself bending time, gathering critical clues, and grilling witnesses—all from the comfort of your living room.
This game promises a thrilling blend of mechanics inspired by classics like Return of the Obra Dinn and Immortality, combined with the high-tech intrigue of Minority Report. But don’t expect a simple whodunit—testimonies may lead you astray, demanding that you challenge suspects by toggling between mixed and virtual reality environments.
Exclusively launching on the Quest platform, Detective VR offers around five hours of story-rich gameplay. You’ll have the capability to manipulate the timeline—rewind, pause, and scrutinize scenes to unearth hidden clues. Throughout your investigation, you’ll engage with six characters brought to life through motion-capture and voice acting.
The cast includes familiar faces from popular TV hits like The Crown, Succession, and Doctor Who, with talents such as Luke Mably, Angus Wright, Melissa Bright, Hannah Wright, David Clark, and Bryony Byrne taking center stage.
Based in Marseille, France, Chipo y Juan is no stranger to VR innovation. They’ve previously crafted projects like the narrative-rich VORTEX VR for Quest and curated several experiences for art exhibitions.
