Released: March 3rd, 2017
In November Kingdom Games announced initial support for Virtual Reality (VR) Head Mounted Displays (HMD) in FIVE: Champions of Canaan. That initial support was expanded a month later to include the most popular HMDs via Steam’s OpenVR. Today, we continue to expand and improve game play for both our fans using supported VR HMDs as well as those that play with conventional gaming hardware.
