So imagine this: ever wake up in some cold, forgotten place, and you’re definitely not alone, but you’re also kinda alone? (Yeah, sounds like my last camping trip, to be honest.) Anyway, Neat Corp, you know them from that Budget Cuts game, is throwing us into some Norse afterlife madness with their new VR escapade—Crossings.
Picture this—like, grab your Viking sword and your magic spells because you’re on this wild quest. Every time you jump in, the world changes. It’s like that cereal I had this morning that didn’t taste the same as yesterday, but in a more epic adventure kinda way. You run into lost souls, but here’s the kicker—no chit-chat, just pure vibe check and teamwork. Trolls? Yep. Draugr? Definitely. It’s like the ultimate “don’t-look-under-your-bed” scenario.
Now, as you go about your ghostly business, improving your spells and loading up on weapons—be it axes or something as ancient as the ‘Tooth of Nör’ (I mean, sounds like a dental nightmare, right?)—you’re mastering the art of dodging and striking. It’s like a dance but more life-or-death with mythical creatures wanting to snack on you.
Neat Corp paints quite the picture: you start off like this amnesiac warrior spirit, navigating a limbo-esque wonderland. Every choice you make kinda marks this mystical world—it’s all deep and profound. I guess like deciding on pineapple on pizza, except your decisions here mean more than just a dinner debate with friends.
And here’s the fun twist—whether you’re solo or teaming up, each game run or ‘crossing’ leaves its own impression. The stakes are high, like, “choose poorly and some legendary beast might remind you why you should’ve opted for the sword instead of the wand” kind of high.
Here’s the bummer though: no release date stamped on it yet. But hey, do mark your calendars because from October 14th – 21st, there’s a sneak peek demo available during the Steam Next Fest. Just you, a VR headset, and a taste of this mythical chaos.
Catch it soon on the Horizon Store for Quest or wishlist it on Steam. Till then, we wait. Maybe brush up on your Norse mythology and, who knows, clear out some space for your soon-to-be ghostly training grounds.
