New Fantasy is an AR-based game that encourages players to exercise, coming soon to iOS
ONTOP Studios has announced that New Fantasy, the studio's AR game that encourages players to get moving, is coming to iOS on October 12th. The game uses Augmented Reality to motivate players to take on monsters while running and dodging their way across the real world, offering a unique kind of exercise with multiplayer functionality to boot.
In New Fantasy, you can look forward to battling through foes using plenty of physicality on your own or with your besties. There are multiple stages to take on where monsters will come to life via the latest tech such as ARKit, ARAnchros and LiDAR from Apple.
"New Fantasy uses AR to make an old dream of mine come true, where me and my friends can battle epic bosses in the real world by being physically active, as an extension of the games that we play on a TV or computer screen. If you are looking for new exciting experiences with friends, look no further," says Nuno Folhadela, ONTOP CEO.
