Motion controls isn't in the released version (and probably won't be for some time), but you can already get this mod from Nexus Mods: https://www.nexusmods.com/outerwilds/mods/7

This is still a very early version, so a lot of stuff is broken. Please read the description over at NexusMods, and for more information:

You can help make this mod better!

If you just want to test by playing:

  • go to the issues page, look at any issues marked "investigation", and see if you can test that and give any more info about it. Usually this means going through the game and writing down what's broken and what's not.
  • Open new issues when you find problems that aren't already in the issues page.

If you want to contribute to the codebase:

You don't have to be some expert programmer / modder to do this. If any of these steps are confusing to you, ask me directly and I will help you, here or in Discord. Eventually I'll make a more noob-friendly guide. This was my first ever game mod, so it's all new to me too! If you're curious about the inner workings of the game, this is a good way to learn.

I’m so excited for this now!

i thought the game was hard capped at 60 fps, this gets around that?

Holy crap. I literally finished this game yesterday and it was one of my all-time favourites. I NEED this.

    I played the game without knowing that and found it to be a better experience going in blind. I suggest you delete this comment or mark it as a spoiler. I know the mechanic wasn't a secret but not knowing it made for a really cool experience.

    Nice didn't even know they had a vr mod for the game!

    The mod loader is fairly recent, made by /u/AmazingAlek. And with his help I started on the VR mod shortly after he announced the mod loader here.

    I felt motion sick just reading the title

    Awesome! Some of these mods disapear without a trace but you seem to be really commited. Good luck with the mod and super happy that you are doing it.

    I so want to play this game and have been holding out for the VR version. How does this mod work? Does it run smoothly?

    [–]brother-mas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I’d tell you to just go for it. It is an amazing game, and VR might be a little glitchy and might ruin the experience. I’d recommend just playing normally first and then re-experience in VR

    I posted a lot of information in the top rated comment here. Read everything and follow the links to get an idea of the current state of the mod.

    I keep telling everyone this is the best game I've played in years. It needs VR for extra hype. Probably going to require some help for those without VR legs.

    I'd be perfectly happy without motion controls at all. Just get the game working.
