Sam & Max: This Time It’s Virtual, the wise-cracking anthropomorphic crime-fighting duo’s (presumably very silly) plunge into the world of VR, is – after a short delay from its originally announced June launch window – out today on Oculus Quest.
This Time It’s Virtual (Sam & Max’s first entirely new video game outing since Telltale Games’ The Devil’s Playhouse in 2010) is the work of developer HappyGiant, which promisingly includes Sam & Max creator Steve Purcell and a number of ex-LucasArts alumni who all worked on the studio’s seminal 1993 point-and-click adventure Sam & Max: Hit the Road – writer/designer Mike Stemmle, creative director Mike Levine, and concept artist Peter Chan.
Additionally, David Nowlin and Dave Boat, who’ve voiced Sam and Max previously in a number of Telltale titles, are reprising their roles as the dubious dog and bunny duo.
