The PCVR build will be largely similar to the Quest 2 build, but with the addition of a bunch of graphical options such as volumetric clouds, fully dynamic lights and shadows, amped up particles, etc.

What about Consortium: THE TOWER?!

To all of you folks that bought here on Steam that are reading this in frustration: We truly are genuinely sorry that we’ve had to take such a drastic detour from updating Consortium: THE TOWER (The Tower) here on Steam. In exchange for this long wait, future builds of The Tower will be directly receiving many benefits thanks to the CONSORTIUM VR project. This includes features that go beyond what we originally promised backers back in 2016. This means:

-Full V.O.I.C.E. support. You will be able to use your own voice to conduct dialog in The Tower - zero button pressing. -Full native V.R support. The Tower will now be coming to VR as well as flat-screen. -Massively improved combat A.I., FX, inventory systems and general GUI. -Most of the Virtual Trainer content of CONSORTIUM VR, including the VT editor and mod tools

Finally, if you’re a Steam Tower owner/player that is feeling ignored/abandoned, please hop into our Discord server and ask for the “Tower Steam Owner” role - you will receive a special icon next to your name and receive special perks and future sneak-preview builds of The Tower, just like Tower backers currently do.

More info about V.O.I.C.E and about CONSORTIUM VR will be coming over the next few weeks. Until then, it’s back to the dev caves for us!

Namaste,
