About the Game

Return to the original Cyberpunk VR experience.

TECHNOLUST is the award-winning Oculus Rift launch title that defined early VR cyberpunk. This rerelease makes the original classic available again—fully playable on PC with mouse & keyboard or any Xbox-compatible gamepad.

Explore a fully realized neon-soaked dystopia as an interactive visual novel brought to life through atmospheric environments, strange characters, A.I. uprisings, mass conspiracies, and the crushing weight of corporate control. Winner of 2 Proto Awards (Best Art Direction, Best Sound Design) and a Vision Award for Artistic Achievement, TECHNOLUST remains a cult favorite for fans of retro-future immersion.

What You’re Getting in This Release

This version is the original 2016 Oculus Rift edition, restored and updated for modern PCs but does not include motion-controller support. It plays like a traditional first-person adventure using a controller or mouse and keyboard.

Remaster in Development

A fully remastered edition of TECHNOLUST is currently in production, featuring:
Full SteamVR support
Native desktop (non-VR) mode
Steam Deck compatibility
Reworked visuals & upgraded systems
Integrated expansion content
Motion-controller support

This rerelease exists for players who want to revisit—or discover—the original version while the new edition is being completed.

TRUST YOUR TECHNOLUST.
