What players say
Most players recommend this early access shooter for its satisfying gunplay, but clunky interactions, weak AI and performance problems hold it back for now.
Many players enjoy the gunplay, which they describe as punchy and satisfying, with good weapon feedback, a deep attachment system and enemies that react to shots in the legs and arms. The John Wick style of play, the atmosphere and the level design also win praise, and some reviewers call it the best VR shooter they have played. Complaints centre on performance: many players report stutter, frame drops and high hardware demands, especially in VR, and some miss upscaling or resolution settings. Many also find holsters, reloading, grabbing weapons and opening doors clunky, and some call the enemy AI predictable or dumb. Recent reviews are more cautious than the older helpful ones, mostly because of the early access state: there are only three contracts so far, and players hope for more content, polish and fixes.
Praised
- Satisfying gunplay
Players praise the punchy weapon feel, with strong recoil feedback, good sound and shotguns that clear rooms.
Many players - John Wick feel
Reviewers say the game captures the stylish, cinematic action of action films, with slow motion and dramatic kills.
Many players - Atmosphere and graphics
Players call the visuals detailed and well weathered, comparable to Half-Life: Alyx, with immersive sound and voice acting.
Many players - Weapon attachments and variety
The attachment system, with suppressors, sights and lasers that can be changed on the fly, and many guns get praise.
Some players
Criticised
- Performance and stutter
Players report stutter, frame drops and high hardware demands, especially in VR, even on strong PCs.
Many players - Clunky holsters and grabbing
Holstering, drawing, grabbing dropped weapons and reaching for items often fail or drop guns, according to many players.
Many players - Weak enemy AI
Enemies often rush the player in groups or walk straight at them without cover, and some players find them predictable.
Many players - Reloading and interaction
Reloading feels awkward or arcadey, and doors and objects often do not respond as expected.
Some players
- Who it suits
- Suited to players who want a stylish, gunplay-focused VR or flatscreen action game and can accept an unfinished early access state.
- Who should skip it
- Players who want polished interactions, smooth performance or a large amount of content should wait for more updates.
