Peaky Blinders go VR

Maze Theory's upcoming narrative VR game, Peaky Blinders: The King's Ransom, has released a brand new "Mixed Reality" trailer that immerses players in the gritty world of 1920s Birmingham and London. The game, inspired by the BAFTA-winning television show Peaky Blinders, lets players step into the shoes of the show's protagonist, Tommy Shelby, and interact with other iconic characters like Arthur Shelby. The game's action is intense, full of opportunity, and comes with a high level of risk as players move up the ranks in the world of organized crime.

In the "Mixed Reality" trailer, players can get a glimpse of iconic locations, like Garrison Lane, and see the groundbreaking technology behind Peaky Blinders: The King's Ransom. The trailer comes in anticipation of the game's debut on Meta Quest 2 and PICO 4 on March 9th, 2023. The game will be launching exclusively on these platforms and comes with a range of immersive features, including a believable world and characters, intense action, and an epic crime drama.

Peaky Blinders: The King's Ransom is set to offer players an unforgettable immersive experience, with a deep narrative that is co-written with the show's creator and writer, Steven Knight, and produced in collaboration with Caryn Mandabach Productions and Banijay Brands. The game is set to premiere at PAX East in Boston from March 23 to 26, followed by WASD Live from March 30 to April 1 in London's Truman Brewery.

The game is built in Unity and is available for wishlist on Meta Quest 2. PICO 4 owners can play the game ahead of launch by downloading the demo directly from the PICO store. Peaky Blinders: The King's Ransom promises to be a thrilling experience, offering players the chance to immerse themselves in the world of the Shelbys and uncover allegiances while confronting their enemies.
