nDrive confirms PlayStation 4, Oculus Rift virtual reality projects in development

Developer nDrive confirms multiple projects are in the works for both PlayStation 4 and Oculus Rift.


Here's a letter on Polygon that was written by nDrive CEO Patrick O'Luanaigh on the upcoming releases.

"I'm delighted to be able to officially announce that we are working on a PlayStation 4 title, which will launch in 2014," reads the investor letter. "More details will follow next year, but it's the most ambitious game we have ever created, and we can't wait to reveal more about it — it's going to be something truly special.
"We're also working on a game for the awesome Oculus Rift. VR is an area of technology that we believe will finally come of age in 2014, and you'll see us investing a great deal of time and money into it."

It's exciting to see this, although it doesn't confirm that Oculus Rift virtual reality technology is headed to PS4. In fact, it sounds more like these two projects in the works are separate.

News came out back in November that the creator of the OR didn't believe their technology could run on either PS4 or Xbox One. However, Sony could be working on its own virtual reality headset.

nDrive is famous for their work on PlayStation Home and the game Skydieving.

'PlayStation Home' is giving away free PSone games

Haven't used PlayStation Home is a while, or don't even have it installed? Might want to reconsider never using it again thanks to Sony giving away three PSone games.

Polygon reports that users that load up PS Home can go into the PlayStation 4 Experience and search for voucher codes for Twisted Metal, Warhawk, and Destruction Derby.

How can those codes be obtained? From the Polygon article:

The scavenger hunt is simple, requiring about 10 minutes or so of hunting, light puzzle-solving and Coming to America references. Trailers and images for PS4 games like Knack, DriveClub and Killzone: Shadow Fall are available, but not required viewing to progress in the quest.
Three vouchers for Twisted Metal, Warhawk and Destruction Derby scattered about provide download codes for PS3 and PS Vita.

All three games are definitely worth it for those that haven't checked any of them out, and all of them are compatible on PS3 and PS Vita.
