Consortium VR

Consortium VR is an interactive narrative in which you inhabit the mind of Bishop Six, a newly commissioned officer in the Consortium, a supposed peacekeeping force that promotes global unity and safeguards Earth’s environment. You activate the interdimensional satellite iDGi-1 to enter a bright vision of humanity’s future, aboard the Consortium Command vessel C-3800-D “Zenlil.”

Investigate the story

As Bishop Six, you investigate a cryptic murder, defend the crew from an outlandish attack, uncover hidden conspiracies and navigate complex relationships. Branching dialogue and alignment systems let you influence the story’s direction and shape the public’s perception of you. You can choose diplomacy without drawing a weapon or take a more aggressive route when possible. The campaign takes 6–10 hours and is designed for replay, with multiple possible paths.

You can use your own voice to interact with 20 fully realized characters aboard the Zenlil, or choose not to. Your decisions explore questions of trust and loyalty and affect how the story unfolds.

Explore the Consortium

The in-game Information Console contains hundreds of documents about the world of Consortium, organized into politics and culture, science and technology, space exploration, general history, and Consortium operations. It also includes nearly 200 AI-generated images. Interactive screens embedded in your virtual arms let you manage weapons, equipment and other features.

VR gameplay

The Virtual Trainer (VT) offers varied VR gameplay scenarios, and its editor lets you create your own levels. Integrated modding support lets you share levels worldwide. The remaster also overhauls the Virtual Trainer with several additional levels and a leaderboard system, and completely remakes the “Zenlil Defence Minigame.”

Remaster changes

The game has been ported to a modern engine, with bug fixes and improvements to graphics and performance. Its user interface has been redesigned for VR, and choreography and dialogue options have received months of polish. The remaster adds a new ending, including a new conversation with the Consortium King, following years of feedback and hindsight. It also includes editing and polish passes on all Information Console documents, nearly 100 new documents, and support for German and French.
