Cosmonious High is an alien adventure where players take the role of a Prismi, a unique alien species that can adapt to any situation, and crash lands on their first day of high school. The school is troubled by mysterious malfunctions and chaos. As a Prismi, players will adapt extraordinary alien abilities to restore Cosmonious High to its former glory while also taking classes and making friends with quirky classmates.

“We worked hard to ensure that Cosmonious High’s PS VR2 experience runs buttery smooth and takes advantage of the unique hardware found in Sony’s next-generation VR headset,” said Devin Reimer, CEO (Chief Executive Owl) of Owlchemy Labs. “PS VR2 players are in for a treat when Cosmonious High launches on the headset in February, providing an immersive VR experience that anyone can enjoy.”

Cosmonious High features many enhancements built to take advantage of PS VR2’s hardware, including: 

• Gorgeous visuals rendered in 4K at 90fps immerse players in Cosmonious High’s vibrant, colorful world in a unique and playful art style.
• Improved controller and HMD haptics transports players to Cosmonious High’s world, enabling them to feel the wind, water, balls of paint, and more from their hands to their heads. 
• Real-time shadows and dynamic lighting enhance Cosmonious High’s environments and create a natural-feeling world.
• Shorter load times mean players can seamlessly explore the world and hang out with their alien classmates.
• Sony’s audio spatializer enables players to go deeper into Cosmonious High’s world as distinct sounds flow all around the Prismi, adding emotion and atmosphere to the experience.
