The unparalleled VR edition of the emotional narrative experience where players
control the game with their eyes is available for pre-order from January 26th


COPENHAGEN, January 23, 2023 – 5th Planet Games A/S (OAX: 5PG) is delighted to
announce that alongside publisher Skybound Entertainment and developer
GoodbyeWorld Games that the BAFTA award-winning title Before Your Eyes will
launch globally for PlayStation® VR2 on March 10, 2023. The game will be
available for pre-order January 26th on the PlayStation Store.

Before Your Eyes is entirely controlled through the eyes of the player. This new
edition uses the VR headset's front-facing camera to create a one-of-a-kind
immersive story. Players will learn to control the flow of the narrative with
eye–blinking and head tracking, making this the first time that Before Your Eyes
can be played without controller inputs. By combining its innovative blink
interaction mechanic with a charming world and a fully voice-acted story
starring Sarah Burns and Eric Edelstein, Before Your Eyes is a deeply emotional
and relatable journey, one about the impossible expectations we place on
ourselves and the regrets we carry with us.

Commenting on the announcement, Mark Stanger, CEO, 5th Planet Games, said
“Launching this award-winning experience on VR is great news for 5PG and our
shareholders. The game has been a huge critical success on PC and mobile
already, and now Before Your Eyes will stand out with recognition and featuring
by Sony, as they expand the global market for VR”

Before Your Eyes was one of the original titles included in 5th Planet Games’
2021 investment agreement with Skybound and has seen consistent critical and
commercial success since its first release in April 2021.
