Heaven Island - VR MMO

Released Dec 2015

More a Journey in your Inner Self than a game, "Heaven Island" is an experience in which you'll explore wonderful places. The inspiration for the environments comes from the Renzo Piano designs and from the book "Origins of Architectural Pleasure" in which the welfare is of primary importance.

Evaluation

Heaven Island launched on December 23, 2015 and received a flurry of patches and updates in the weeks following launch, adding features like achievements, animals, interactivity, and server stability improvements. The developer shipped two paid DLC packs: a soundtrack on March 18, 2016, and an artworks/emoticons pack on December 26, 2016 — both are released with no unreleased DLC remaining on the store. After December 2016, the developer went quiet on this title for nearly nine years. The only subsequent communication was a news post on August 6, 2025, which mentioned a vague "improved graphics and bug fixes coming soon next month" for Heaven Island alongside a Nintendo Switch 2 enhanced edition — but the bulk of that post was promoting an entirely different upcoming game (Mai: Child of Ages). No follow-up patch or Switch 2 release has been confirmed in the available data, and the store description still references early VR headsets (Oculus, Gear VR, Steam Vive) without any updates reflecting current hardware. The game's two major content drops both occurred in 2016, and no new content has shipped since then. The August 2025 mention of upcoming improvements, while technically an outstanding promise, appears to be a minor maintenance note rather than a substantive content commitment — and given the pattern of infrequent communication and the nearly decade-long gap since any real update, this game is best understood as a product that reached its final content state with the last DLC release on December 26, 2016.

About this game

Heaven Island is an experiential game in which you'll explore wonderful environments and places.

On this Island, time and space are frozen and you'll be able to visit it and at the same time explore the inner of your soul.
All problems and worries of life will be left far behind so that you'll be able to rest your soul and mind during this experience.


The inspiration for the environments comes from the Renzo Piano designs and from the book "Origins of Architectural Pleasure" in which the player's welfare is of primary importance.

This game is a Massive Multiplayer Online experience in the sense that you'll be able to connect with all other gamers and will be able to view their essence in order to be able to create a "Connection".

All the details you see on the Island are made by hand, every rock you see is put there with a purpose.

We really hope you'll enjoy this wonderful experience.


Designed to be played with or without the Oculus VR, Gear VR and (soon) the Steam Vive VR
