Synth Riders and Walkabout Mini Golf team up for a VR cross-over event & sweepstakes!

Huh, what a nice coincidence. Two of our favorite VR publishers have spontaneously decided to collaborate for a limited time crossover event and sweepstakes just in time for the Holidays and end of 2023!

Kluge Interactive’s Synth Riders will feature a free track based on Mighty Coconut’s Walkabout Mini Golf’s memorable Shangri-La course appropriately titled “Shangri-La La La” from now until only December 31st. The newly remixed track is available on all VR platforms (Quest, PS VR2, Pico, SteamVR), so certainly get Synth Riders updated and give that a go before it’s gone.

But wait, there’s more. The publishers are also teaming up for a sweepstakes to give away an assortment of goodies including a Meta Quest 3 headset, DLC codes for Walkabout and Synth Riders and more. Check that out right here: https://gleam.io/sF0Tr/synthabout-sweepstakes. Oh and Might Coconut also has the Walkabout Mini Golf soundtrack album available to check out as well, here: https://www.mightycoconut.com/wmgsoundtrack

For now check out some screens and trailer of the collaboration below.

The developers of Walkabout Mini Golf and Synth Riders joined forces to celebrate the 2nd anniversary of Shangri-La DLC release with a special treat for all their fans – an exclusive remix of the course’s theme song, now available in Synth Riders on all VR platforms for a limited time.

This unique song is the product of friendship and admiration between the development studios. Chris Reyman, the original score composer for Mighty Coconut’s Walkabout Mini Golf, has created a stunning reimagining of the Shangri-La theme song, inspired by the mesmerizing synthwave aesthetics of Synth Riders. Melon4dinner, a member of the Synth Riders team, carefully crafted a beat map that not only makes players dance but also indulges them with in-game walls shaped like golf-themed objects.

The re-imagining is based on the original score for the Shangri-La course, available on volume 1 of the Walkabout Mini Golf Original Soundtrack album.
