imo a must-have for any VR user. the game and interfaces feel really clean, the gun play just as much, overall it is a ton of fun. great game to quickly jump into and have a run whenever you feel like it, in that regard it's the TBOI of VR for me. i also really like that it has a generous demo for you to get a feel of what you're getting. well worth the full price. i know it's unlikely but i would love a coop mode :)

The game is honestly a fun experience that you can just always come back to whenever. The enemies are challenging the guns reload is not the worst i've seen the shooting feels nice almost like i am playing old doom games. The graphics and the art style are very nice at feeling like you are in old retro games. Overall i would strongly recommend.

This is fantastic one of the best VR games. Every aspect of the game is pure class. What really makes this stand out from numerous other VR shooters is the lack of any jank. If you die in the game it is because YOU did something wrong. There is a real challenge here if you play this on any setting above easy and that is what has kept me playing for 22+ hours.
