PunjiVR is an unforgiving tactical shooter set during the Vietnam War. Gameplay is non-linear, replayable, and intense. This is not just "another VR shooter" or a tech demo. The jungle wants you dead, will you give in?

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“PunjiVR is a very ambitious game with limitlessness possibilities and heaps of potential. To ensure the full vision for it is ever completed, Early Access gives me the opportunity to work on the project long term.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“At least 5 years. An accurate estimate is not available at this time.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Full release is expected to have a large amount of varied content included with the base game, in addition to a mission editor and Workshop support. Large scale missions, vehicles, squad management, and other exciting additions are also planned.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Refer to the roadmap in the description and the update notes for an up-to-date account of PunjiVR's progress. ”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“There are not plans at this time to increase the price for PunjiVR on full release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Frequent progress updates have and will continued to be posted on the game's Reddit page and Discord server. I respond to all comments, suggestions, and bug reports on the Steam forums, the Discord server, subreddit, and anywhere else you can reach me, so don't hesitate to reach out!”
