In VRChat, a wide variety of content is released day and night, from game worlds where you can play with friends to scenic worlds perfect for relaxing. In this series, we will pick out and introduce some of the most visually appealing worlds from the vast number of available worlds.
The game we’re introducing today is the magnificent steampunk world, “—The Promised City—“.
“—The Promised City—” is a world created by Hakuseki Rei, who works on VRChat-related assets, as well as composing music and creating CG. You can enjoy exploring a castle-like plaza built in the middle of the sea.
The most striking feature of this world is undoubtedly its stunning visuals. The lighting installed throughout the city creates a truly fantastical atmosphere.
The surrounding buildings are designed like cafes, and you can go inside to take a look around. The steampunk atmosphere is clearly conveyed through the ceiling pipes combined with gears.
Stepping outside and looking up at the sky, you’ll see white birds soaring freely. Personally, I think the sunlight streaming in is also a highlight. The blue sky provides a nice contrast to the warm-toned lighting that illuminates the city.
Additionally, pulling the triggers on both controllers activates the “jump” function. A crosshair will appear on the screen, allowing you to aim at your desired position and then operate the trigger again to fly towards that location.
This feature is especially useful for taking photos; for example, if you fly near scaffolding or a large clock, you can take pictures like this.
(There is an instruction panel at the entrance to the world explaining how to play.)
(Jump up to the clock and take a commemorative photo!)
“—The Promised City—” is a world where you can enjoy taking photos and strolling around in a high-quality cityscape. Currently, the graphics load tends to be a bit heavy, so it is recommended to enter in desktop mode first, and if it seems okay, then visit in VR.
Incidentally, this world is also available for purchase on BOOTH, and you can buy it and combine it with your creations, or use it to create a world centered around “—The Promised City—”.
