Skully’s Unruly Reactions — Waltz of the Wizard update
This past month has been wild! Waltz of the Wizard went viral on social media and what’s followed is that poor Skully has never been thrown out the window so often in a single month.
This has all helped Waltz reach new audiences and helped make it a VR best seller on Quest, Steam and PlayStation! Our thanks to everyone who’s been playing and to the streamers — we’ve been thoroughly enjoying all the amazing creativity in your videos.
Skully is already VR’s most interactive character with hundreds of voicelines and enormous amount of unique reactions to what you say, facial expressions and gaze, communicative gestures and people’s behavior along with awareness of the environment. So, we’ve been thinking, why don’t we make VR’s most interactive character…. even more interactive?
Skully’s Unruly Reactions update brings +400 new voicelines and a whole bunch of new Skully interactions! From entirely new reactions to extensions of what was there before, the update makes Skully feel more alive and responsive to a greater set of things that you do and say.
You’ll find things like alternate reactions so there’s variety in voicelines, greater commentary on in-world events, greater number of things like impact reactions, extended functionality in how specifically you do things like dunk him in the cauldron and, for the many who have been specifically asking for it, yes… you can kiss him now.
Skully’s Unruly Reactions is a FREE update to Waltz of the Wizard owners, now live on Meta Quest and Steam — coming soon to PS5!
