Experience Survivorman’s Challenges First-Hand in Survivorman VR: Into the Descent, Launching Early 2023
Today, Cream Productions — a multimedia company known for shows like The Story of Late Night for CNN, Wild Things with Dominic Monaghan, and the VR game Dark Threads — welcomes players to test and improve their outdoor survival skills in Survivorman VR: Into the Descent, launching in early 2023. Appearing on the Meta Quest 2 and PC VR headsets, Survivorman VR offers players a chance to pit themselves against the elements and extreme environments from the safety of their homes — while learning the mortal essentials when it comes to outdoor survival. With the use of immersive VR technology, the game is a true-to-life survival experience crafted by one of the most iconic and legendary survival experts of all time: Les Stroud.
After narrowly avoiding catastrophe in a fiery helicopter crash, players will need to use all their wits to not only survive extreme environments but descend an imposing mountain to the point where they can be rescued. Utilizing their toolbox of skills and whatever items they can scavenge to complete challenges, players must navigate glacial crevasses, construct hunting traps, and most importantly, keep the fire burning! With Les Stroud by their side as a guide, players have access to a wealth of survival knowledge, but in the end, it’s up to them to make the right decisions that will determine whether they will live or die.
“I’ve spent decades challenging myself and showing people what it is like to survive in the most extreme situations,” said Les Stroud. “I’ve worked closely with Cream to ensure Survivorman VR is as authentic as possible, so that when you head into these challenges, you’ll go through everything I do any time I step into the great outdoors.”
“We have a tremendous respect for Les and Survivorman, and we’re excited that Survivorman VR may actually teach people some hands-on survival skills that could be applied in the real world,” said Andrew MacDonald, Executive Creative Producer at Cream Productions. “We’re excited to help players step into Les’s boots.”
