Press release

Grab your hard hat, pull on your high-vis and step into the shoes of a Digger Operator in DIG VR

9-5, what a way to making a digging

Watford, UK - August 2, 2024 | Showcasing the authentic and immersive nature of their upcoming light-simulation game with an arcade twist, Publisher Wired Productions and award-winning developer Just Add Water are thrilled to reveal a brand-new trailer for the most immersive digging VR game you’ll (probably) ever play: Dig VR.


Coming to Meta Quest later this year, DIG VR invites players to step into the virtual world of earth excavation. Featuring an easy-to-learn, but fun to master, realistic control scheme, DIG VR recreates the feeling of sitting atop a bright yellow digger with haptics, surround sound and vibrant visuals.


How immersive is it? Check out the ‘Life of a Worker’ trailer below to get a feel for what to expect in this dig-tastic VR sim.


Starting off with nothing more than a mini-digger and a dream, players will soon pick up the keys to a colossal machine with a diverse set of attachments to overcome the most challenging of jobs. Exploring the town of Diglington, players will dig, delve, dredge, and discover their love of all things excavational in Dig VR!


Check out what to expect below:

 
  • Choice of authentic & simplified controller schemes 
  • Full Career Mode Campaign with options for both serious & casual players 
  • Control powerful machinery, with up to 4 machines in a range of sizes
  • Unlock up to 7 unique tool heads to attach to the digger, including a bucket, Breaker, Circular Saw, Auger, Trimmer, Compactor and Grabber. 
  • Over 70 customisation options to unlock for your digger, including decal, paint & skins 
  • Play quirky mini-games, or enjoy the zen sandbox mode
  • Featuring the first ever dynamic digable terrain in VR that can be dug, moved and dumped.
 

DIG VR is coming to Meta Quest in 2024, wishlist via the Meta Store. Sign up for more information via DigVRgame.com, and keep up to date with the latest news via the game’s social media channels Twitter/X, Facebook and Instagram.
