TOKYO - December 03, 2020 - MyDearest Inc., a Japanese VR game developer, releases ALTDEUS: Beyond Chronos on Dec 3rd, 2020 on Oculus Quest, Oculus Quest2, and Oculus Rift.
The project had its crowdfunding campaign on CAMPFIRE, a Japanese crowdfunding platform, this summer and gathered over 20 million JPY (About $200,000) with 1,650 backers.
MyDearset Inc. announced the project in summer 2019. The team has challenged to exceed the quality of its previous work, TOKYO CHRONOS. To celebrate the launch, we have messages from the project members.
Akari Kito (Voice Actor of Chloe)
From the beginning to the ending of my voice recording, I gave everything and put my heart to play the role. Though Altdeus has multiple endings, there's no clear good ending or bad ending. A player will have his/her own favorite ending. Like that, the story is amazing. I hope you'll dive into the world of ALTDEUS: Beyond Chronos through VR and enjoy the game all over!
Haruki Kashiwakura (Director)
ALTDEUS: Beyond Chronos is finally to come out. All of the staff from the developer team including me have kept believing that it'll be our own work. It's the cluster of our passion. It's time for you to dive into the world.
LAM (Character Designer)
It feels very long but also short from the beginning of the project. ALTDEUS: Beyond Chronos is finally to come out. We've learned a lot of things from our previous work TOKYO CHRONOS. By taking advantage of knowledge from that, I'm pretty confident that ALTDEUS: Beyond Chronos becomes phenomenal. You can feel the new era of VR with our work.
Kento Kishigami (Executive Producer)
Can you believe that my VR headset was submerged underwater with my tears when I was playing ALTDEUS: Beyond Chronos? It intensively shook my heart though I had known all the story. Like that, ALTDEUS: Beyond Chronos becomes the best work ever. I'm proud that we, as a VR game studio, can provide this masterpiece for you. I really appreciate your support. And I want to say this to those who will play the game. You have your life of view change with the best gameplay experience.
