It's been a long time since the world had a new Sam and Max game, which will forever be some of the best adventure games ever made, so rejoice in the shock news that the duo will get a new adventure next month - and this time it's in VR.
Sam and Max: This Time It's Virtual! was revealed late last year and now finally has a release date of July 8 as a temporary Oculus Quest exclusive, priced $29.99. It will then appear later this year on Steam VR and Viveport Infinity, before hitting PlayStation VR in early 2022. There's a new trailer too, showing what seems to be a tutorial 'escape room' area, which the player has to navigate while receiving "helpful" advice from Sam and Max - complete with the duo's trademark irreverent humour.
On to the important question then: why should you care, as it's clearly not being made by LucasArts (Sam And Max Hit The Road) or Telltale (Seasons 1-3)? Well, developer Happy Giant was founded by LucasArts veterans, including Mike Levine - who worked on the original classic Hit The Road. Furthermore, Sam and Max creator Steve Purcell is a consultant on all parts of the game - and will actually be voicing a character, too.
