In Bounce Arcade, players are transported inside immersive 3D table arenas featuring classic pinball-inspired mechanics like rails and bumpers, along with new tricks and secrets to uncover. Players will start with a set number of balls, and using their paddles, they must keep the ball in play to rack up points while navigating thrilling level specific mechanics. In round progression unlocks mini games and events, and alters the gameplay to keep Bounce Arcade thrilling round after round.

The game keeps players on their toes as the difficulty can increase with multi-ball game play.

With the addition of these skill shots there is lots for the player to master, creating a ton of replayability. 

Get ready for pinball blasted into the future!

Velan Studios announced its upcoming VR pinball experience Bounce Arcade will arrive on Meta Quest supported platforms on November 21, 2024. 

At launch, players will be able to explore four thrilling levels including Gunpowder Gulch and Asteroid Outpost, plus two additional tables to be announced later.

Key Features:

• Play with New and Classic Mechanics: Players will start with a set number of balls, and using their paddles, they must keep the ball in play to rack up points while navigating thrilling level-specific mechanics. Players can use paddles to deflect balls or attract balls with a tractor beam and even control balls in mid-flight with the “lasso” mechanic to guide the ball to where they want.
• Immersive 3D Arenas: In Bounce Arcade, players are transported inside immersive 3D table arenas, featuring classic pinball-inspired mechanics like rails and bumpers, along with new tricks and secrets to uncover. Each of the table arenas has a distinct theme and presentation, including Space and Western.
• Scalable Difficulty: The game keeps players on their toes as the difficulty can increase with multi-ball game play. Certain events within a level will cause multiple balls to be added to the environment which creates a period of more intense action. Launching a ball is a powerful aiming mechanic that lets the player hit certain targets with much higher certainty than reflecting it off a paddle.
• Multiple In-Round Activities: In-round progression unlocks mini games and events, and alters the gameplay to keep Bounce Arcade thrilling round after round.

Bounce Arcade will launch on Meta Quest (2/3/Pro) on November 21, 2024.
