Today (10th November 2015) marks the release of Bandit Six Salvo for Samsung Gear VR, powered by Oculus; the anticipated sequel to top selling Bandit Six created by UK-based Climax Studios.
Bandit Six: Salvo thrusts you into the heart of war, defending key positions against waves of incoming enemy forces. First, position your gun turrets on your War Room map table for maximum effect, then go first person and man your machine guns, mortars and cannons to blast hordes of enemy bombers, helicopters, landing craft, tanks, jeeps and much more before they destroy you. From the beaches of Britain to the snowy ruins of Stalingrad, to the sun baked Pacific you’ll face tougher and more challenging missions against ever increasing numbers of enemy forces. So steel yourself, look down the sights and shoot!
The games’ predecessor Bandit Six was launched in April 2015 and quickly ranked as one of the top selling games on Samsung Gear VR Innovator Edition. Its creators Climax Studios have over 25 years experience in the gaming industry and are pioneers in the VR space, with a raft of recent launches and multiple VR projects in development.
Climax CEO Simon Gardner said: “Since I first experienced the Samsung Gear VR 18 months ago, we’ve been a strong believer in the technology and its potential. With Bandit Six Salvo, we’ve delivered an engaging shooter that puts the players front and centre in the action.”
Bandit Six Salvo will be available worldwide on 10th November 2015. Players can purchase the game for $4.99 via the Samsung Gear VR digital store.
