Still not true. It's launching on Epic Store tomorrow as well, and still can be purchased there for $16.99.. nearly half the price of the Steam version.
For anyone worried about supporting the game's developers, that difference in price is being covered entirely by Epic, Trover's devs still get the same amount they would if you bought it elsewhere...
Actually, no, that's not true. Epic only takes 12% of the profits of any sale, compared to Valve's 30%... so you'd actually be supporting the devs more by buying it for less on Epic Store.
:wink:
I'm buying it now, myself. It'll be the first VR game I've run off the Epic Store, so I can make sure there isn't any weird catch (like how Viveport requires you to install Steam and SteamVR)

My bad, yes it's also available in the Epic Store. As I'm considering getting the Index, I'm thinking there might be advantages getting the Steam version, but of course the Epic version may be the same.

CrashFu said:Interesting to note, there's a FAQ on the (Epic) store page for the game, stating that it will support not only gamepad, but also Touch and the Index Controllers as well. But apparently not the Vive Wands, because they just don't have enough mappable buttons.
:tongue:
The list of supported headsets also lists Vive, Rift, and Index. Rift-S isn't specifically listed, but I assume it will work just fine.
I'll be the guinea pig tomorrow.. if I have any trouble with the Epic Store version, or specifically using Rift-S, I'll let you all know.

Support for Touch and Knuckles is awesome, didn't see that one coming - having to use a gamepad was my main argument for not buying this game. Looking forward to install it in 5 hours!
PS. I think CV1 is the winner here when it comes to audio - compared to Rift-S and Index. The language in Trover may not exactly be something you want your spouse or kids to hear 😄

yea I played a bit, it's not real VR controls. It's like some of the older VR games that let you use Touch but you're basically using it like a Gamepad... No real benefit to it at this point. Game does look awesome in my Odyssey. Lots of vivid colors.
