Charged up from the multi-million dollar success of Job Simulator (2016) and its more recent game Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-ality (2017), Owlchemy Labs recently revealed they’re teasing their next VR game at this year’s Game Awards.

Geoff Keighley, game journalist and founder of The Game Awards, announced the news on Twitter, saying Owlchemy’s next VR title will be unveiled during the pre-show.

According to a response by Owlchemy Labs’ official Twitter profile, the VR game will be multiplatform—no surprise considering the success they’ve had with Job Simulator, which was a launch title for HTC Vive, Oculus Touch, and PlayStation VR.

Information is still thin on the ground, so you’ll just have to watch to find out what sort of game it is, and whether the company is essentially making another madcap, object-based simulator, or if they’re branching out to new genres.

The show takes place Thursday, 7th December 2017 at 5:30PM PST (your local time). You can catch the awards show on YouTube.
