Play as an operator raiding enemy compounds in a first-person VR shooter, alone or in co-op with up to four players.
Clear rooms with tactical weapons, explosives, and melee tools that can break through walls and doors. Choose a stealthy approach or make a loud assault, while enemy alerts and security systems affect encounters.
Take on structured, multi-stage contracts with objectives and side contracts. Select and customize gear for missions, and unlock equipment and cosmetic items as you progress.
