The upcoming horse management simulation game, Rival Stars Horse Racing: VR Edition, is set to launch on Steam and Quest in just two weeks.
Created by PikPok, Rival Stars Horse Racing: VR Edition represents a virtual reality version of the established series. Players will take on the challenge of taming, breeding, and racing their own horses within a vibrant barn setting. The gameplay involves not only managing your ranch by caring for and feeding your equine companions but also stepping into the shoes of a jockey, racing against challengers for the coveted top position or demonstrating agility in show jumping events. The announcement was made today during the Ruff Talk VR Showcase, showcasing a trailer that reveals the release date.
PikPok shared, “This latest installment in the adored Rival Stars Horse Racing franchise is meticulously crafted as a VR experience, providing the most immersive representation of horse racing and the equestrian lifestyle to date.”
During our preview at Gamescom the previous year, we appreciated the gameplay reminiscent of Nintendogs, along with the captivating racing experience, noting, “The vivid pastoral environment is charming and meticulously designed, offering an ideal setting for horse care. The blend of ranching duties and nurturing activities crafts an unexpectedly soothing ambiance.”
Rival Stars Horse Racing: VR Edition will be available on Steam and Quest on April 17.
