Tilt Five today announced a new title for its AR game system: Catan. Users can play the tabletop title in holographic form on Tilt Five’s board. Tilt Five launches the game in spring 2023.
The company is partnering with CATAN GmbH, CATAN Studio, Twin Sails Interactive and Blazing Griffin on the new game. The Tilt Five AR system includes proprietary glasses, a retroflective gameboard and a wand controller. Players wearing the goggles will see the game in holographic form. Those who use the board will also be able to play remotely with others.
