First person horror / shooter game, if you have played the original Metro 2033 then this game is basically a VR version of that, with most the action happening in dark underground passageways and you having to rely on a bit of stealth and resource management (gas masks / rechargeable headlamps) from time to time.

Unfortunately because this game was developed for the lowest common denominator hardware (the Quest 2 / 3 headsets being the target platform) the graphics are kind of low-poly for a PC VR title. The maps are also smaller in scale and the number of interactable objects in the environment is quite limited, so don’t expect this game to be as graphically impressive as Half Life: Alyx.

But maybe that’s a good thing if you got a potato PC…

Reviews are generally mixed. 3/5 on GamesRader, 3.5/5 on TechRadar, 7/10 Press Start Australia, and 7/10 TheGamer
