TL/DR: I have a Quest 3. Exceptionally fun, particularly for a massive 40k nerd but setting knowledge is not a requirement. But if you do have that knowledge, the scale and tone is captured very well. A little buggy, a little unreliable (I had a couple of crashes), and the checkpoints could be more frequent. Well worth the money I spent on it, though probably not worth getting a full VR setup specifically to play this game. The Bad (I'm just getting it out of the way first, the Good far far outweighs it): The worst part of this game is that the checkpoints are not frequent enough. In a VR game, checkpoints should be very frequent, in case people need a break for eyestrain or nausea (I was mostly eyestrain). I could go 15-20 minutes without a new one, and when my head was pounding and I had gone 10 minutes past a checkpoint and I was just begging for another one, it got a little tiring. Buggy. If I ever set down the controllers, the game stopped tracking them until I closed it down and restarted it. Made streaming it for an interested friend a nightmare. Also I had my share of crashes, no more than 3 or 4 though, and usually while trying to get it to stream effectively. 40k fans: power scaling is not lore accurate in the slightest, which is a positive for me, but could be a negative for others. More on that in "The Good" The Good: Hack and slash/shooter fans: The gunplay, once you get a feel for the aiming, is very fun. The guns are nice and weighty, yes they have easy reload, but you can also manually reload which can be very satisfying. I'm not sure how the throwing physics work with grenades but I'm sure with enough practice I could get better at it. You can carry up to 4 weapons, two on either hip, two on either shoulder, and a big part of it is managing your space to customize your loadout. Swords can only go over your shoulder, pistols can only go on your hips, two handed guns, either/or. I personally found it very fun to carry a sword and pistol, a long range weapon of some kind and a short range weapon like the meltagun (think super shotgun). Each weapon has its place and purpose, and I found quite a few weapons combos that I really liked. My personal favorite was two plasma pistols, a bolter, and a power sword. Swords can get caught on things, the game had a bad habit of not registering my swings, but part of that was me so I don't hold it against the game. Swords are very useful for protecting yourself and tend to do more damage than your guns. 40k fans: It captures the scale very well. When you meet a Black Templar, you find him using a bolter the size of your whole body, and you really get a feel for the size of a space marine. Which is great because when I was fighting the Word Bearers and a marine came flying at me on a jump pack brandishing twin lightning claws, I suddenly and viscerally understood the concept of transhuman dread and needed a change of pants. The cathedrals are big, you get to see an Imperial Knight up close, that's huge, it just does the size of 40k justice. The power scaling is very "rule of cool," which is a positive for me, might be a negative for others. It's a game first and a 40k lore product second. The level design is great, the enemies are varied and placed with deliberate care to create a fun challenge, and the boss fights have some fun and creative mechanics. And while a lone Sister of Battle would never be able to 1v1 an astartes terminator, you are a named Sister of Battle, and as we all know, a name is the most powerful thing in the entire setting. So you actually fight and defeat a fair few of them. The Neutral: Some of the fights can be a bit much. Then again, might just be a skill issue on my part lol. It's a tough game in my experience, and there were a couple of deaths that shouldn't have happened, but overall, it wasn't that bad, though this does cause a problem when you're dealing with the checkpoint issue I mentioned. Levels are about 45 minutes apiece if you're not bad like me, which may be a little long for a VR session, but that's a person by person basis. Faith powers are a little too fiddly to use effectively without practice, but have some great utility once you get them down. Overall, wholehearted recommendation from me! It was at the point by the end where I would check the time and say "Oh come on, I have just enough time for one more mission before bed. Just a few more heretics." It's the kind of game that had me actively wishing I could play more, but not being able to because eyestrain.

It's alright. Fairly short and simple game. I would pick it up if its on sale and you are a fan of warhammer.

Not the best VR-Shooter, no breathtaking graphics but if you like Warhammer 40K you will definitely find some great moments here. Slaying heretics with a Bolter Pistol in one hand and a Power Sword in the other just feels awesome. Make the Emperor proud of you and buy this Game! (Teleport Locomotion available - kind of)

It was fun. Not great as 40k lore goes, some enemies are way easier and more common than they should be (looking at you, chaos marines and chaos spawn) and some of the weapons REALLY don't work like they should (the meltagun is only effective at point-blank range, the lasgun is a star wars blaster and does basically the same damage as the bolter and only has thirteen shots per power cell????? Why'd they even put it in the game aside for one throwaway "haha it's weak" joke?????? and they made it as strong as the bolter shot for shot so the joke doesn't even work???????????? and the chainsword is just objectively better than the power sword when it should be the other way around). The game has some pretty challenging fights to its name, with annoying checkpoint placement to complement them sometimes. The boss fights are pretty easy, though, especially the last one. It doesn't get everything wrong, at least- the chaos terminators can kill you faster than you can react if you're not mindful of them, which is about right, and the plasma pistols are as dummy stronk and dummy hazardous as they should be. They also had the decency to make the flying enemies die in one hit so they aren't annoying to deal with when they really could have been. And it feels pretty damn good to fight with a melee weapon in one hand and a bolt or plasma pistol in the other. If you want to play a VR shooter, there are better options for quality, but if you're specifically a fan of 40k and want to play a VR shooter set in the universe, I'd say it's worth a go.

This Game is hot garbage. The graphics are bad, the plot is trash, and its overall a short experience. I now own it for 2 systems (quest 3 for gaming on the go) and cant stop playing it because its exactly what I want from VR and I want more. You literally start by watching 2 titans duke it out and then go do a bunch of grimdark stuff that ends the level by manning the storm bolter on a tank (beautiful). The absolute Joy I felt spreading the emperor's love with a bolter in one hand and melta gun in the other is indescribable. And I'm pretty sure my fiance is now scared of me after witnessing the maniacal laughter that erupted from me the first time i found a chain sword. Pros: Bolt Guns,Chain swords, Flamers, Chain swords, melta guns, chain swords, and fighting along side a space marine. Cons: It's short, that's really it. the graphics look like the old RTS games but that's a plus for me cuz i loved that stuff. I really hope there is a sequel or at least games for other factions/armies.
