Arizona Sunshine 2, the highly anticipated sequel to Vertigo Games’ popular VR zombie shooter, is set to bring next-generation action to PlayStation VR 2, Meta Quest, and Steam VR on December 7th. The announcement comes with an exciting new gameplay trailer that showcases the thrilling zombie-slaying experience players can expect.
Following in the footsteps of its predecessor, Arizona Sunshine 2 features the same witty protagonist as players embark on another sun-soaked adventure, battling hordes of zombies in the vast Arizona desert. This time, however, the game promises to deliver enhanced next-gen VR environments and a new mutilation and gore system for an even more immersive experience.
One of the most exciting additions to the sequel is the introduction of Buddy, the protagonist’s faithful dog. Buddy will not only join players in wreaking havoc on the zombie masses but also provide valuable assistance along the way. Described as the goodest boy to play a game of undead fetch with, Buddy will help unearth key items and assist in carrying essential gear.
Fans of the original game can look forward to a range of all-new and fan-favorite weapons, including shotguns, flamethrowers, crowbars, pickaxes, and machetes. These weapons, combined with the addition of Buddy, promise to deliver a dynamic and thrilling gameplay experience.
Arizona Sunshine 2 will be available for purchase on December 7th via Steam, the Meta Store, and PlayStation Store. The standard edition is priced at £43.99/€49.99/$49.99 USD, while the Deluxe Edition, which includes an undead Buddy companion, a Buddy-shaped weapon charm, and Freddy Flesh Hands for a ghoulish touch, will cost around £10/$10/€10 more.
The original Arizona Sunshine received critical acclaim upon its release in 2016, with Eurogamer’s Ian Higton stating it was the closest players could come to starring in their own episode of The Walking Dead. The sequel aims to build upon the success of its predecessor, offering players a thrilling and immersive virtual reality zombie experience.
With its next-gen VR environments, new mutilation and gore system, and the addition of Buddy the dog, Arizona Sunshine 2 is set to provide fans with an adrenaline-fueled adventure they won’t soon forget. Mark your calendars for December 7th, when the game will be available for VR enthusiasts to dive into the sun-soaked world of zombie-slaying action.
