Later this spring, Atari is serving up a trippy dose of gaming psychedelia with the PlayStation VR2 launch of Akka Arrh, Jeff Minter’s critically acclaimed arcade shooter that launched on PC and consoles in 2023. 

In this unexpected VR rendition, Akka Arrh transcends its 2D shackles, unveiling a new dimension of gameplay that is as immersive as it is intuitive. The PS VR2 experience elevates the game from a mere visual spectacle to a fully enveloping journey into Minter’s hypnotic universe.

Here, players don’t just witness the chaos; they step inside it. Each layer of techno-infused action, previously compressed in the 2D space, now unfurls in a rich 3D landscape.

In this surreal VR world of cascading shapes, colors, and sounds, every element of Minter’s vision comes to life with an intensity and clarity that was once unimaginable, transforming Akka Arrh into an unparalleled sensory odyssey.
