Facebook Has Bought VR Studio Ready At Dawn, Developer of The Order: 1886 and Lone Echo

Facebook continues to develop its VR division Oculus Studios: the company has announced that they have acquired Ready At Dawn, the studio behind The Order: 1886 and Lone Echo for Oculus.

It’s quite obvious that Facebook is interested in VR development and this was the reason for the purchase. The company notes that Ready At Dawn has created a proprietary system of movement in weightlessness, which is perfectly suited for both novices and cyber athletes.

Facebook and Ready At Dawn have not disclosed any specific plans, although Ready At Dawn is currently developing Lone Echo 2. Apparently, Ready At Dawn completely retains its structure and intends to develop games for both the VR headset Oculus Rift and autonomous VR headset Oculus Quest.

Besides Ready At Dawn, the Oculus Studios family also includes Beat Games (Beat Saber) and Sanzaru Games (Asgard’s Wrath). They all continue to do projects for VR.
