Lunar Flight from Shovsoft, is one of those OG’s of virtual reality gaming, and a damned fine one too. We’ve not heard too much from the developer recently, but the game work on the game does continue. These new shots of the newly remodeled WIP cockpit have us itching to get back to the game.

The new shots elevate the already realistic feel of the title yet further, with some serious levels of attention to detail on display. Lunar Flight has been one of our favourite VR titles since it first appeared for the Oculus Rift DK1 back in 2013. See the hands-on piece to the right for a nostalgic look back at the game as it was then.

Developer of Lunar Flight, Shaun Edwards, stated that the new cockpits should be in place along with a new moon to explore as part of a planned DLC package, to be released to coincide with the consumer Oculus Rift – currently slated for Q1 2016.

    Wow! This is looking so good. Can’t wait to play the updated version. Lunar Flight was one of the first VR games that I would spend hours at a time playing.
