Asgard's Wrath 2, the sequel to developer Sanzaru Games' 2019 virtual reality ARPG, received a brand new trailer today ahead of its December 15th release on the Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest 3, and Meta Quest Pro VR headsets.
It's been a great year for RPGs all-around and even the VR space wants in on the action. Enter Asgard's Wrath 2, Meta's potential «killler app» for its VR headsets. Set in Ancient Egypt this time around, the game is said to be a 60+ hour open-world RPG that aims to improve on it's already well-received predecessor in a number of ways.
