Ready at Dawn Echo Arena is a virtual reality multiplayer game that was developed by the video game development studio Ready at Dawn in partnership with Oculus. It was released on July 20, 2017, exclusively for the Oculus Rift VR headset.
The game is set in zero gravity and players are placed in an arena where they play as robots in a two-team game of disc throwing. The objective of the game is to move through the arena and catch, pass, and throw the disc to score a goal in the opposing team's net.
The game features different moves and techniques that players can use to gain an advantage over their opponents. These include boosting, grappling hooks, and wall running. The game also allows players to communicate with their teammates through a built-in voice chat feature.
One unique aspect of the game is that it requires players to physically move and use their entire body to control their robot avatar. This makes for a highly immersive experience, and players have praised the game for its fun gameplay and unique VR experience.
Ready at Dawn Echo Arena has been well-received by both players and critics, with many praising its innovative gameplay, high-quality graphics, and immersive VR experience. It has also been recognized for its contribution to the growing VR gaming market, and has won several awards and nominations, including the VR Game of the Year at the 2018 SXSW Gaming Awards.
