How it feels

A retro run-and-gun platformer in VR where fast reflexes and precise shooting feel rewarding against challenging levels and bosses.

What players say

Players describe this as a VR take on classic Mega Man, with fast-paced shooting and platforming. It's considered easier than the first game but still challenging, with a retro soundtrack and satisfying boss fights. Reviews split on the presentation: some praise the graphics and music, while others call out generative AI cutscenes and voiceover as poor quality.
