More On: The Mage's Tale

The developer of Wasteland 2 (and 3) and Torment: Tides of Numenera recently announced the launch date for their Oculus Rift and Touch game, The Mage's Tale. Set between the events of The Bard's Tale III: Thief of Fate and the upcoming The Bard's Tale IV, The Mage's Tale will give players the chance to actually step inside a world with which they are already familiar.

The Mage's Tale is a dungeon crawler RPG set in the dungeons below Skara Brae. You play as an apprentice of Mage Alguin, who has been kidnapped by the corrupt wizard Gaufroi, and you are the only one who can save him. Within the game, players can explore ten dungeons, solve puzzles, avoid traps, and destroy monsters, all through the unique experience of VR.

The Mage's Tale is set to launch on June 20th for $39.99 and requires the Oculus Rift and Oculus Touch (but not an Internet connection). However, the pre-order campaign will give players 10% off the regular price. The game is available for pre-order now through the Oculus store, and you can check out the release trailer below.
