Fireproof Games Announces Release Date for Ghost Town VR Mystery

Fireproof Games, known for the popular puzzle box adventure game The Room series, has revealed the launch date for its upcoming paranormal VR mystery, Ghost Town. The game is set to release on Meta Quest on April 24th, with a release for PCVR and PSVR2 planned later this year.

In Ghost Town, players are transported back to the year 1983, where they step into the shoes of ghost hunter Edith Penrose. Edith, along with her flatmate, runs a successful paranormal detective agency in London. However, her world is thrown into chaos when her brother goes missing, leading her on a journey to uncover the truth. This quest will take players to a remote Scottish island and through the supernatural underbelly of London.

With the release date set for April 24th on Meta Quest, anticipation is building for the immersive experience that Ghost Town promises to deliver. Stay tuned for the game’s launch, and in the meantime, check out the latest VR Games Showcase for more virtual reality entertainment options.
