Premiere Date Set for Syfy’s Halcyon

LONDON: Syfy channels outside of the U.S. are set to launch the hybrid VR short-form scripted series Halcyon on September 22.

Created by Secret Location, the series will be available across the international Syfy channels and companion websites, and in VR on the Oculus Rift and Samsung Gear VR. The 15-episode police procedural encompasses 10 episodes for the linear channels and 5 VR episodes. For those who can’t access the VR episodes, there will be short recaps for viewers on the linear channels.

The series focuses on the fictional virtual reality company Halcyon, which has developed neurological implants in place of the VR headsets. When the company’s CEO is murdered, two detectives must investigate.
