After launching Pixel Gear, indie Chinese publisher Oasis Games Ltd has announced the release of Weeping Doll, its third PlayStation VR title. It is a dark, story-driven, psychological mystery adventure game where dolls come alive, fueled by the negative thoughts of their owners. In it, players must solve difficult puzzles in eerie surroundings as a tortured girl’s doll takes revenge on her parents.
“Weeping Doll arrives just in time for Halloween to bring a spooky psychological adventure to PlayStation VR gamers looking for a touch of the macabre,” said Alen Wu, business director at Oasis Games. “Step into a mansion filled with hidden tragedies and discover a story that unfolds as you solve its ghostly secrets.”
The game is played in the first-person through the eyes of a maid who uncovers the secret of a Japanese family’s Victorian-style house. Players will also have to pay attention to every object and audio cue to solve puzzles and get past challenges. To minimize any VR-induced discomfort while exploring, players can project their maid avatar in discrete steps to wherever they want.
Weeping Doll is developed by TianShe Media and is published by Oasis Games in North America, Europe, and Asia for the PlayStation VR. From November 2 to November 16, 2016, the game will have a 10 percent discount off the USD 9.99 base price and a 20 percent discount for PlayStation Plus members (the 10 percent off discount applies only to North America and Singapore.)
