Tigertron debuts its eco-friendly ethos with VR dolphin game: Jupiter & Mars

The Tigertron studio unveiled its debut game, Jupiter & Mars, at Sony’s PlayStation Experience event tonight. It’s a single-player virtual reality puzzler set in a future where humanity is now extinct — however, its influence is still felt in the world’s oceans. Tigertron developed the title in partnership with Australian studios Tantalus Media and Wicked Witch Software, and it’s slated to release on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation VR in May 2018.

Jupiter and Mars are two dolphins who are attempting to save the ocean’s reefs and its ecosystem, which have been thrown out of whack by the toxic machinery that humanity left behind. On their quest to shut off the industrial equipment, they receive help from whales known as the Elders. The player will mainly control Jupiter, with Mars along as an AI companion. However, you’ll be able to direct Mars to interact with parts of the environment and to help you with puzzles.
