VR JRPG RUINSMAGUS Receives Updates Both Free And Paid
Last summer publisher Mastiff and developer CharacterBank embarked on the experiment of translating the classic JRPG formula into virtual space. The result was RUINSMAGUS, a first-person, fully immersive VR JRPG for Steam VR and Meta headgear.
The all-caps name of the game is also the name of the guild you happen to belong to. Beneath the surface of the metropolis called Grand Amnis, there’s a labyrinth of abandoned, ancient ruins. There are a lot of valuable artifacts down there, but every one of them is protected by fierce guardians. The RUINSMAGUS Guild ventures into the ruins to battle the guardians and bring back the treasure. Sound simple enough? It won’t be nearly that easy….especially with the guardians right in your face!
But the main game wasn’t the end — CharacterBank is introducing new content to RUNSMAGUS this holiday season. A paid DLC chapter will add a new story, “The Warrior and the Tailor,” that takes place after the events of the game.
Grand Amnis has never felt more alive: A bustling all-new area features trendy shops, a tranquil river, and chatty townsfolk. But a peaceful day of exploring turns sour when Iris enters a mysterious shop – only to meet a terrifying new enemy. Facing down this fierce swordsman may unlock untold treasures, a few worthwhile memories – and even some fashionable new outfits for Iris.
Too cheap for “The Warrior And The Tailor”? RUINSMAGUS will be getting some free content updates as well. The biggest addition is a survival mode called “Meister’s Abyss” where the goal is just to survive as long as you can against an endless wave of monsters. Since this mode is not for beginners, it will only appear to those who have achieved Meister rank (completed Chapter 23).
RUINSMAGUS is now available on the Meta Quest Store and Steam VR, for $34.99.
