How it feels

Feels like being dropped into a tense, realistic military firefight where communication and precision are everything.

What players say

Players say PCVR support was abandoned after the developers shifted focus to standalone headsets, leaving some headsets unable to boot the game. Long-time players are split: some still enjoy the PvE modes and gun selection, while others call the game dead due to lack of official updates.
