VR Trivia Battle Arrives on Steam and the Oculus Store, Tournament Extended

At the beginning of October developer RLTY CHK launched a new social virtual reality (VR) experience for HTC Vive and Oculus Rift called VR Trivia Battle on Viveport. Now the studio has brought the title to Oculus Store and Steam, as well as extending a tournament which began last week.

VR Trivia Battle

A free-to-play game show style experience for 1 – 8 players, VR Trivia Battle features tens of thousands of questions as well as mini-games in between rounds. In single-player mode contestants can compete against AI, while Classic Mode is pure one-on-one trivia against another human opponent. Trivia Royal mode then turns things up a notch adding the most amount of players into the game for a proper showdown.

To make things a little more interesting RLTY CHK has extended its tournament until Sunday 28th October. This allows players to compete for the following real prizes:

First place in 1v1: Vive Wireless adapter
First place in single player: 12 month Viveport Subscription
First place in Trivia Royale: 12 month Viveport Subscription
Top 10 in all game modes: 3 months of Viveport Subscription

It’s easy to enter, simply register at VRTriviaBattle.com/tournament, download the free videogame from your preferred store and start playing. You need to play at least one game to qualify and the person with the highest single score in each of the three game mode wins. As an added bonus everyone will get a full free month of Viveport Subscription just by signing up – Viveport currently only offers a 14-day free trial.

VR Trivia Battle is free to play with a $7.99 USD in-app purchase that unlocks exclusive avatars and over 10,000 new trivia questions. Formally known as Kiss or Kill, VR Trivia Battle is also available at VR arcades across North America, including Springboard, CTRL V, and Private Label locations.

‘VR Trivia Battle’ Hits Viveport Subscription Today, Other VR Stores Later This Month

VR Trivia Battle, a game show-style trivia game for Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, launched today on Viveport Subscription. The game, which pits online users in a battle of wits, will also be launching later this month on Steam and the Oculus Store, giving Viveport subscribers a first whack at the chance to win real prizes for a limited time.

VR Trivia Battle features over 10,000 questions, over 20 unique avatars, and three game play modes including single player vs AI, a two vs. two ‘Classic’ mode, and a ‘Trivial Royale’ mode that pits between three to eight players against each other.

Players compete in three rounds of trivia, and engage in three unique mini-games, while doing “whatever it takes to win – including throwing pies and bonking each other with a mallet,” says developer RLTY CHK.

A ‘Host’ mode is also available, letting users qualify to be the game show host and run their own game show. All game modes end in the ultimate choice to fight or flee (formerly dubbed ‘Kiss or Kill’)

The game will be available exclusively to Viveport subscribers until October 23rd, which includes tournaments where players can win real prizes. Afterwards, the game will be made available via Steam and the Oculus Store.

Thanks to Viveport’s recent support for Oculus Rift, subscribers can use Rift and Touch for many games made available via the platform, including VR Trivia Battle.

VR Game Show VR Trivia Battle Out Now on Viveport

Game shows have been popular since before the invention of television, but exploded in popularity after TV came onto the scene, with a wide variety of formats and types and even entire networks devoted purely to showing game shows. Now virtual reality (VR) users can experience what it is like to be on a TV game show with VR Trivia Battle.

VR Trivia Battle brings the game show experience into VR. Developer RLTY CHK say the title features over 10,000 trivia questions, along with dozens of available avatars and three game modes to try.

Players take part in three rounds of trivia, as well as three mini-games. Players can also engage in nefarious tactics to try and get the win, including throwing pies or smacking other avatars with a mallet.

In single player modes, players compete against an AI opponent known as the ‘Quiz Queen’. Classic mode is a two-player mode where two players compete in a trivia contest, hosted by Host Bot Harry. Trivia Royale lets between three and eight players compete against one another, with the last player standing being declared the winner. Finally, there is Host mode, where players can try out to be a game show host and run their own show.

“Game shows have been an effective way to bring audiences to new technologies, from television to mobile,” said RLTY CHK CEO Nicholas Robinson. “With VR Trivia Battle, we set out to do the same for virtual reality and create a compelling experience for a mainstream audience.”

VR Trivia Battle will be available exclusively on Viveport until 23rd October, 2018. During this exclusivity period Viveport will be hosting exclusive tournaments that will let players win real prizes.

“We can’t wait for Viveport subscribers to play VR Trivia Battle with their friends and family,” said Rikard Steiber, President of Viveport. “This highly social experience, coupled with the hit game show genre, is sure to be a winning formula for Viveport’s customers.”
