Valve promises to release a “Flagship VR Game” later this year

Pre-orders of Valve’s newly announced Index VR headset will start on May 1st, paving the way towards higher fidelity VR experiences. Alongside this announcement, Valve has confirmed that they plan to release a “flagship VR game” later this year, which will support their Index headset and other SteamVR compliant devices. 

As typical for Valve, the company has remained tight-lipped on their upcoming VR game, revealing nothing about the game aside from the fact that it’s coming. Is this Half-Life VR, Portal VR, Left 4 Dead VR or a new IP? Who knows.  

Thanks to the game’s SteamVR support we know that the title will support HTC’s Vive headsets, the Oculus Rift/Rift S and Microsoft’s Windows Mixed Reality VR headsets, opening up the game to the broadest audience possible. 

One thing that’s worth noting is that Valve’s new Index headset is marketed with support for Linux/SteamOS, which could be an indication that Valve’s upcoming VR game will support Linux as well as Windows, which is great news for Linux users.
