Yore VR allows players to craft their own towns and immerse themselves in a medieval setting through the HTC Vive. As players progress in the game, new features, weapons, and resources are unlocked, in order to perform more advanced Blacksmithing and crafting.
The early access version of the game features:
Open World Design: A 1kmx1km area for players to explore, as they encounter a dazzling scenery, including rivers, lakes and wildlife. Blacksmithing: The system will allow players to create a variety of items and weapons. During early access, the player can only build swords. The specifications of the item will depend on the player’s skills during the process, that will feature a semi-realistic blacksmithing simulation. Practice Forge: Players will find 44 different components, blades, hilts, crossguards and pommels with thousands of possible crafting combinations that can suit the style of each player. Items will vary from 4-5 different levels. Player Progression and Town Building: Players unlock weapons and buildings after gathering enough resources and gold, in whichever order they wish. Once players reach the ability to develop buildings, those can be upgraded, adding new features and benefits to their town.
According to the developers’ page on Steam, the plan is to keep the game in Early Access for 12-16 months, and the goal is to release its final version in late 2017. This version will include:
