Bloober Team revealed today that they are working on Blair Witch: Oculus Quest Edition, a VR version of their acclaimed horror game that should launch on October 29th for the Oculus Quest platform.
As you might have expected, the game has been designed with the recently revealed Oculus Quest 2 in mind, and players who buy the game with the intention of playing it on the new device will be able to enjoy higher resolution textures than those of us who are still using the first generation headset.
