Set in 1928 Birmingham, Peaky Blinders: The Kings Ransom will include iconic characters like Thomas and Arthur Shelby. Players will find themselves asking the Shelbys for help retrieving a valuable box.

The developers promise an immersive world featuring familiar places, faces, and lots of action. Players can explore locations like The Garrison pub, Charlie’s Yard, and Shelby’s Betting Shop and meet a bunch of different characters.

For fans of action-adventure and crime drama, Peaky Blinders: The King’s Ransom allows players to explore the gritty streets of 1920s Birmingham in an authentic Peaky Blinders virtual reality experience inspired by the hit TV drama series. We think this new trailer will give players an exciting glimpse of what’s to come in March.”
