Previously debuted during this year’s Tribeca Festival, The Pirate Queen took the prize for the Immersive Storyscapes Award. Focused on puzzle solving, exploration and more, here’s the official story description:
The Pirate Queen is the forgotten story of Cheng Shih – a woman in 19th-century China who became one of the most powerful pirates in history. When the leader of the fleet dies suddenly, a widowed Cheng Shih faces the possibility of losing her status, security, and even her life. Players take on the identity of Cheng Shih to complete a series of puzzle-based tasks, outsmart enemies and become the Pirate Queen.
The Pirate Queen arrives in February 2024 on the Meta Quest platform and SteamVR.
