Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate Out Today for PSVR 2, Quest & PCVR

It’s becoming more commonplace in videogames to see new life breathed into older titles with a remake. In VR it’s very rare, but that’s exactly what Mighty Eyes is doing with Wanderer. The time-travelling adventure has been overhauled into Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate, which is out today for most VR headsets.

The original Wanderer launched in 2022 to a reasonable response. The narrative takes to to iconic moments in mankind’s history like the moon landing or playing at Woodstock. Mixed in were escape room-style puzzles, utilising technology of the era to solve the elaborate challenges whilst uncovering the rich narrative.

But then last year the studio revealed plans to entirely rework the game. They’ve overhauled not only the visuals but added new gameplay mechanics as well.
