It is now live in more than 400 VR arcades and available for download via Steam, Oculus and VIVEPORT in English in the U.S., Mexico, Brazil, U.K., Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, South Korea and China (arcades only).<\/p>\n<p>Developed in collaboration with <em>Westworld<\/em> producers at Kilter Films and designed for Vive and Oculus head-mounted displays, <em>Westworld Awakening<\/em> is a single-player stealth exploration experience played from the perspective of a host named Kate who has attained self-awareness. As Kate, players go along on a journey of self-discovery, using a QA (Quality Assurance) tablet to manipulate the world around you, solving puzzles, interacting with other hosts and staying ahead of Hank, a long-active serial killer host.<\/p>\n<p>Aaron Nonis, VP of interactive and immersive experiences at HBO, said: \u201cHBO is known for producing some of the most compelling shows, offering creative storylines and complex characters that keep our viewers coming back for more. Through VR experiences, we are bringing these fictional people and places to life for our viewers and letting them interact and engage with our shows in new, immersive ways. <em>Westworld Awakening<\/em> is the perfect fusion of the right creators and story, the right IP and the right platform that allows us to create the next-generation playground for our <em>Westworld<\/em> fans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Daniel Zeligman, Survios\u2019 project lead, said: \u201cWith <em>Westworld Awakening<\/em>, we had the privilege of going inside HBO\u2019s popular show to create an entirely new storyline. The end result is a VR experience unlike any other out there, that allows fans to dive deep into familiar settings and become a character on their favorite show, seeking to survive the dangers of <em>Westworld<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HBO has partnered with the interactive content studio Survios to launch a new virtual-reality game based on its Westworld TV series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":11789,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[431,3270,1477,3271],"class_list":["post-11788","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-hbo","tag-survios","tag-westworld","tag-westworld-awakening","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>HBO &amp; Survios Pact for Westworld VR Experience - TVDRAMA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/hbo-survios-pact-for-westworld-vr-experience\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"HBO &amp; Survios Pact for Westworld VR Experience - TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"HBO has partnered with the interactive content studio Survios to launch a new virtual-reality game based on its Westworld TV series.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/hbo-survios-pact-for-westworld-vr-experience\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-08-20T14:48:14+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2019-08-20T15:46:20+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2017\/07\/westworld-awakening-hbo-survios-819.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"550\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"412\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/hbo-survios-pact-for-westworld-vr-experience\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/hbo-survios-pact-for-westworld-vr-experience\/\",\"name\":\"HBO &amp; Survios Pact for Westworld VR Experience - TVDRAMA\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2019-08-20T14:48:14+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2019-08-20T15:46:20+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/hbo-survios-pact-for-westworld-vr-experience\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/hbo-survios-pact-for-westworld-vr-experience\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/hbo-survios-pact-for-westworld-vr-experience\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"HBO &amp; Survios Pact for Westworld VR Experience\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\",\"name\":\"TVDRAMA\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
