A new time-traveling adventure game, “Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate,” is set to release on October 31, 2024, for PlayStation VR2 (PSVR2). This game promises to take players on an epic journey through various historical periods, offering immersive experiences like traveling to the moon, exploring Mayan ruins, and rocking out on stage.
Developed by Mighty Eyes, this game is a sequel to the acclaimed “Wanderer,” which was released in January 2022. The developers have reimagined and enhanced the original game using the powerful Unreal Engine 5, delivering stunning visuals and lifelike environments. The use of Epic’s Meta-humans system ensures that characters are not only visually impressive but also highly immersive, thanks to eye-tracking technology and full-body avatars.
“Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate” features a brand-new physics-driven platforming system. Players can swim, jump, crouch, climb, zipline, and swing their way through diverse worlds. This system is fully physics-based, allowing for more realistic interactions with the game environment. The advanced use of PSVR2’s adaptive trigger haptics and proximity-based head haptics further enhances the immersive experience.
Travel to the Moon, explore Mayan ruins, rock out on stage, and more in Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate, coming to #PSVR2 Oct 31.

The game’s combat system has also been redesigned, offering a new set of weapons, ammo, and enemies. This allows players to be more creative in solving combat situations. The game includes three new levels within existing worlds, providing more opportunities for exploration and adventure.
One of the standout features of “Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate” is the seamless time-travel experience. When players leave a time era and return, everything remains as they left it, ensuring continuity and immersion. The game’s trusty watch companion, Samuel, has been upgraded with a new user interface, a storage system, and a new feature called the Echo Diviner, which helps players locate lost items.
The game is designed for PSVR2, requiring the use of PSVR2 Sense controllers. It supports various play styles, including sitting, standing, and room-scale VR. The haptic feedback in both the headset and controllers adds to the immersive experience, making players feel every action and interaction in the game world.
“Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate” aims to provide a rich and engaging experience for VR enthusiasts. Players will find themselves in thrilling historical events, solving puzzles, and uncovering secrets that could reshape the future. The game’s developers have paid great attention to detail, ensuring that every element enhances the overall experience.
