Otherworld

This is not a game. The future is now. And the future is terrifying.

“When I was a teenager, I was one of the lucky few who got to experience a game very much like Otherworld before it was shut down. When I heard rumblings it was being reimagined for VR, I knew it was something Kirsten and I had to write about. Part mythic adventure, part sci-fi love story, entirely cautionary tale — we wanted to reach the new generation of potential players before this ‘game’ becomes a reality.” - Jason Segel

There are no screens. There are no controls. You don’t just see and hear it—you taste, smell, and touch it too.

In this new reality, there are no laws to break or rules to obey. You can live your best life. Indulge every desire. It’s a game so addictive you’ll never want it to end. Until you realize that you’re the one being played.

Step into the future. Leave your body behind. Welcome to Otherworld.
