Starlight Games has announced House of Golf VR for Meta Quest 2, 3, and 3S, and is calling it the “world’s first mixed reality mini-golfing game”, coming on October 30th.
Ultimately, the plan with this one is to turn normal spaces into a mini-golf course. The team says: “Using cutting-edge passthrough mixed reality, everyday spaces such as living rooms, kitchens, garages, and even gardens and offices can be transformed into dynamic courses. Players can also immerse themselves in vibrant VR locations filled with interactive puzzles and competitive championships, while discovering mystery boxes that hide rare golf balls.”
Starlight Games adds: “With hundreds of course pieces, hazards, and whimsical items, from mechanical cranes to hot air balloons, creators can design the ultimate mini-golf experience anywhere. Every course can be recorded, photographed, , and shared with the community, encouraging creativity and discovery…Where will you build?”
“HOUSE OF GOLF VR is all about playful innovation,” said Gary Nichols, CEO at STARLIGHT GAMES. “We’ve created something truly special a game that gives players the tools to bring their imagination to life, whether that means turning their living room into a golf course or escaping into our beautiful VR world.”
The team previously developed House of Golf 2, and has made Fortnite experiences as well. There are other projects in development but not much is known about them as of yet. Starlight Games is a Liverpool-based studio, and Nick Burcombe (the Wipeout series creator) is one of the leads on the projects. The website for the team says: “We’re a team of passionate developers creating exciting and immersive gaming experiences using the power of Unreal Engine.
