nDreams currently has five of its own VR projects in development, including space combat title Gunner and adventure game The Assembly.

“We’re delighted to be strengthening our relationship with the Mercia team, and their support allows us to continue grow the business more quickly and to finalise our launch titles ready for all major VR headsets,” said nDreams CEO Patrick O’Luanaigh.

“We plan to expand the company significantly and will be actively exploring both publishing and acquisition opportunities in 2015.”
