Go Below, Stay Alive: Ghosts of Tabor Takes VR Gamers Beneath the Streets in ‘Collector’s Awakening’ Content Update
New free content update brings new map, weapons, streamer camera, and so much more
STOCKHOLM and PORT CHARLOTTE, FL, FEBRUARY 28, 2024 — You’ve survived the streets of Matka Miest and escaped, but have you ever wondered what’s happening underground? Following the game’s full launch on Meta Quest earlier this month (where it remains a top 5 seller) Ghosts of Tabor is taking players beneath the city in its latest major content update, Collector’s Awakening, available now as a free update on the Meta Quest Store and Steam VR.
A new trailer for the content update is available here: https://youtu.be/NiwZWU6R7CM
Today’s update packs in plenty of action for the immersive urban survivalist:
- New Matka Miest Underground Map - Explore sewers, subways, and subterranean environments as you go below Matke Miest; try to survive tight tunnels and be ready for an ambush around every corner
- Expanded Matka Miest Overground Map - Explore inside the cathedral for the first time as an all new area opens up for play, and shine some light on the proceedings with the additions of a day / night cycle to the previous perma-midnight city
- New Boss - Matka Miest Museum unveils its latest threat: a clinically insane boss armed to the teeth with top-tier equipment, driven by a chilling hobby of collecting victims' bodies. Prepare for a high-stakes showdown against The Collector as you strive to claim their exclusive loot deep within the museum's depths.
- New Gun - The XM250 Light Machine Gun enters the collection, which has a collapsible bipod, a built in canted ironsight, and a box magazine chambered in 6.8x51mm, better known as .277 Fury Ammo.
- New Grenades - Disorient you opponents with sight and sound by tossing the all new flashbang in their direction
- Improved Silencer Authenticity - Ghosts of Tabor thrives on its realism, so its silencers should feel realistic too – starting today when you attach one you’ll need to twist and click it on, on just like the real thing
- Streamer Camera - Introducing an upgrade for streamers. Immerse your viewers in a more captivating streaming experience with enhanced in-game camera views. Options include stabilized field of view (FOV), helmet cam, barrel cam, and reticle cam, with the added flexibility to dynamically switch perspectives when aiming down sights (ADS). (Streamer camera is only available on PCVR)
In addition to the highlights above, there are a number of quality of life improvements in today’s update including save system improvements, performance improvements in relation to player gear, and a reimagined main menu.
“Combat Waffle Studios commitment to ongoing content is everything we hope to see from the developers we partner with,” said Maeva Sponbergs, Head of Publishing, Beyond Frames Entertainment. “Their passion for delivering fresh experiences is unparalleled in the VR space, as is their relationship with their community.
