Vendetta Online for Samsung Gear VR, HTC Vive, Oculus Rift.
FYI, the announcement went out regarding our support for the Samsung Gear VR, which we are demoing at the show with Oculus and ARM. Some of the gaming and VR press have started to pick it up.
The game runs pretty well in VR mode on the Galaxy S6. We haven't seen it on an S7, but we imagine it'll be good there too. Per Carmack's public comments about light-leakage, we recommend the S6 or S7 and not the "Edge" versions. Samsung is also including the Gear VR headset with S7 pre-orders.
The GearVR is pretty awesome. If you think mobile-VR is kind of a joke, because someone showed you a bad Google Cardboard demo once.. think again. GearVR is a whole other deal. It's actually visually superior the Oculus Rift DK2 devkits in some ways. It's not perfect (still a phone, with associated heat, power, performance limitations), but pretty amazing for what it is.
So, FYI, if you're getting a new phone anyway.. pretty cool dual usage.
We have also announced we're going to support the Vive, but I don't have much more to say on that yet.
That's all for now. I'll check back when I can..

The <title> of that page still says "Vendetta Online released for Windows 8 and Windows RT!". Bad copy-pasta?
Fixed, thanks. I never see <title> anymore. Too many tabs.
I am really excited to see how this develops. Recently bought a Samsung S7 and received a Gear VR in my bundle and I absolutely love it. Is there a timetable for implementation for Gear VR support on Android?

"First half of 2016" is as much as we've formally promised. It's fundamentally working pretty well now, but we still have more work to do on polish for tutorials, flight model, and improving renderer performance.

Very cool! I just got my Moga Pro Power in the mail yesterday. Fired it up with VO and ... wow. The support for the controller is outstanding! What a difference in the mobile experience it makes. Nice job!
