Over the years the Pixel Ripped series of VR games has paid tribute to some of the best eras in video game history. The first two titles revolved around what it was like being a gamer in the late 80s and mid-90s. Now, the team at Arvore is teaming up with Atari to take players back to the early days of console gaming with the upcoming Pixel Ripped 1978. I was able to try out a quick demo of the game on the PSVR 2 during GDC 2023 and get a taste of nostalgia for myself.
As in the first two titles, Pixel Ripped 1978 has players take on the role of a person living in what I’ll call a real world. This time, you take on the role of someone working at the actual Atari offices during the company’s early days. In between interruptions from coworkers like someone tossing a football at your cubicle or someone coming by to update the layout of your joystick, you’ll play a game within a game, so to speak. When folks aren’t pestering you, players will be able to grab an in-game controller and play a game within a game.
