BARDO

A fast-paced, atmospheric action game, built for VR

Overview

Our first own-IP game launch, and built exclusively for VR, BARDO is a fast-paced, atmospheric action game offering the most satisfying and challenging archery experience.

Trapped in the void between death and rebirth, embody the essence of a Tibetan archer and confront hordes of reanimated and corrupt Tsen spirits.

Available now on Steam and Oculus Home

Design Goals

STEP INSIDE A WORLD SUSPENDED
Inspired by the grand Buddhist monasteries of Tibet and the stunning vistas of the Himalayas, experience a breathtaking world dripping with mystery and intrigue.

MASTER SLEEK BOW MECHANICS
BARDO's bow mechanics were painstakingly crafted to offer players an industry-leading level of control and precision. BARDO represents the finest and most responsive archery experience available in VR.

COMMAND THE PASSAGE OF TIME
Your bow possesses the power to suspend time as you draw, but your ability is limited. Use it wisely to gain a decisive advantage amid the tense and fast-paced action.

Results

BARDO was launched on the Oculus Home platform on the 13th of September 2018, and on Steam on the 1st of October 2018.

It is also playable at Monster VR; South Korea's largest urban virtual reality theme park, with plans to expand into Japan and France in 2019.

The game has been very well-received thus far, and is gathering a loyal following in the VR gaming community. We have modest expectations, but high hopes for its future success!
