VIDEOVERSE - Teaser Trailer
The trailer only gives us a brief glimpse of what its Videoverse social network will look like in-game, but itsSteam pagegives us a bit more to go on, showing lots more screenshots of its ‘Feudal Fantasy’ community pages as well as its forum-style conversations between its main cast of characters. Personally, I’m getting bigHypnospace Outlawvibes, but with gorgeous 1-bit artwork.
Rather than playing as an online corporate cop, however, Videoverse will be putting you in the shoes of Emmett, a video game-obsessed teen. You’ll still need to report the odd troll lurking around its forums now and again, but you’ll also be browsing community pages, sharing fan art and forging new friendships along the way. Since this is a decision-based visual novel, you’ll have the option of getting involved with everyone’s teen dramas and favourite fandoms through its multiple side-stories, and there’s also mention of corporate conspiracies to unfurl as well. Alternatively, you could simply choose to help Videoverse thrive from afar, although how exactly you’ll go about it remains to be seen.
There’s no release date for Videoverse just yet, but you can wishlist it onSteamandItchto stay up to date with its progress.
