Waltz of the Wizard receives the free “Skully’s Fantastic Fails” content update alongside its iPhone launch today.
Revealed earlier this year, wizarding simulation Waltz of the Wizard is heading to iPhones and iPads alongside a major update that's also reaching Steam and Meta Quest. Originally announced with a fall release window, last month's trailer from Aldin Dynamics revealed both would simultaneously launch today, on October 27. On PS5 and PS VR2, this expansion arrives “later this year.”
The iOS release also comes with a “Reality Mode” using augmented reality that aims to capture the VR experience's feel. “The game will even recognize your facial input – wink at Skully, play hide-and-seek, and find many other secret interactions,” states Aldin in a press release.
As for Skully’s Fantastic Fails, this new update introduces a rocket launch section in the Courtyard that lets you create wild experiments with our titular companion. This promises “hundreds” of new reactions and additional voice lines, new events across the Tower, and a redesigned menu with a detailed in-game Waltz Codex.
One of VR's oldest hits, Waltz of the Wizard has continued receiving post-launch updates. Alongside the new expansion and iPhone launch, earlier this year saw it become the first game on PlayStation VR2 to support hand tracking. Aldin Dynamics previously confirmed to UploadVR that an Apple Vision Pro port is in development, though a release window remains unknown.
Waltz of the Wizard is available now on iOS, PlayStation VR2, Quest, and Steam.
