Reviews

“A VR highlight with fast-paced rhythm shooting, an exciting soundtrack, and an enticingly abstract art style... Pistol Whip deserves to be discussed alongside Beat Saber.”
8/10 – IGN

“Pistol Whip is one of the most intense, immediately gratifying action experiences, in VR or out.”
Recommended – Polygon

“[Pistol Whip] is already the game that brings me back to my VR headset again and again, and I expect that to be the case for months to come.”
10/10 – UploadVR

Story Driven Cinematic Campaigns

Smoke & Thunder

A notorious gunslinger re-emerges to roam the Old West in search of her missing sister, unwinding a deep conspiracy on the cusp of the industrial revolution. It’s time to don your best cowboy hat and go guns-blazing to the wild West, where trains run amok, Tesla tech buzzes at every turn, and dynamite blasts dance across the sky.

2089

The cybernetic future is here, and it needs the perfect hero. It needs you. The 2089 campaign features a gritty sci-fi story and five linked scenes. Step into the cyber-augmented body of John Asimov, wielding a brutal new arsenal to battle an off-world plague of killer machines — all set to a sweet synthwave soundtrack.
