Fortunate’s Story Shock Releases On Oculus Quest 2

Oculus Rift launch title – and one of the very first VR-exclusive games – Lucky’s Tale is now available for Quest 2.

Developer Playful Corp surprisingly released the game today for $ 19.99 on the standalone platform. It’s a reworked version of the original title that has the same content as the original, but with improved lighting and performance, remixed audio, and Lucky’s character and animations taken from the non-VR sequel Super Lucky’s Tale. Check out a trailer below.

Other than that, this is the full version of Quest 2. Lucky’s Tale is a third-person platformer with an isometric perspective, similar to non-VR games like Super Mario 3D World or, for the VR-initiated, Moss and Astro Bot Rescue Mission. You control Lucky with the sticks of the Oculus Touch controller, jump over gaps and defeat opponents with a spin attack.

We’ve been looking at the game for the past few days – check out a graphic comparison below between the Quest 2 port and the PC VR original.

As the Oculus Rift launch title, the game was originally played with an Xbox gamepad but has been updated to support the Oculus Touch controllers via the buttons. It was also included for free for the first people to buy a Rift back in 2016.

Playful confirmed that the game does not support cross-buy from the Oculus Store and there are no plans for an Oculus Quest 1 version of the game. This makes Lucky’s Tale one of a growing number of games to leave the original Quest behind, joining Resident Evil 4, Blade And Sorcery, and Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond this week.
