Along with a release date, The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners – Chapter 2 will also be bringing its zombie-spaying action to the upcoming PSVR2.
Virtual dead
Seemingly one of the better received games on any virtual reality platform, The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners looks to have garnered a solid following. And no doubt, it’s a fanbase that’ll be jazzed to know that the first-person survival/zombie-slaughtering title will be coming up in short order.
But aside from a March 21st, 2023 release, we’ve also got news that the game will be coming to a new platform – the PSVR2. Sony’s followup virtual reality headset will indeed play home to the game, expanding the accessibility just a bit.
If you’re looking to get in on one of the new PS5-exclusive headsets, then you might want to check this out:
The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners – Chapter 2 will now launch simultaneously on Steam and PSVR2 on March 21, 2023 with both versions jam packed with a slew of improvements based on community feedback from the Meta Quest 2 launch. Furthermore, saves will be transferable between platforms including Meta, Steam and PSVR2. This also means that users who purchased the Meta Quest 2 version in December 2022 can carry over their progress and experience the game on additional platforms.
Skydance press release
Still with us? Well that’s good, because there’s more than just news about the sequel today. Skydance has also announced a celebration, as the original Saints & Sinners turns 3 years old.
That includes a series of high points for those who already own a copy of the title.
