PlayStation VR2 will also utilize eye tracking, which “allows players to interact more intuitively in new and lifelike ways,” Nishino said. This includes the ability to “feel a character’s elevated pulse during tense moments,” PlayStation executive Hideaki Nishino said in a blog post in January. The headset will also have “new sensory features” that create a tactile experience, along with 3D audio to create a more realistic soundscape. It won’t require use of the PlayStation Camera, swapping it out for headset-based tracking - which means embedded cameras will reflect a player’s field of vision and head movements in-game. PlayStation VR2 will provide a more immersive gaming experience. In addition to the main story, Call of the Mountain will also include a “River Ride” experience, which will let players “take a seat and enjoy the gorgeous views of the world of Horizon,” though machines may try to “come aboard!” Ryas is a master climber and archer, and his story will introduce “characters new and old, including Aloy herself.”

He is a former Shadow Carja Warrior who “hopes to redeem himself by investigating a grave new threat to the Sundom,” Guerrilla narrative director Ben McCaw said in a PlayStation blog post. Players will take the reins of a new character named Ryas, using a bow and arrow to survive. The new State of Play footage showed off Call of the Mountain’s beautiful worlds in first person, as a player climbed up steep peaks, ziplined across sweeping planes, and of course, fought off immense and intimidating machine foes that Horizon fans know so well. A release window wasn’t given for the title. Call of the Mountain will be a launch title for PlayStation VR2, Sony’s next generation virtual reality headset. *Combined resolution.During Thursday’s State of Play presentation, Sony shared new gameplay footage for Horizon Call of the Mountain, a virtual reality adaptation of the critically acclaimed Horizon series, being developed by Guerilla and Firesprite.
