About District Steel

Developer's Note: If you are new to VR, we suggest playing a few other VR games first, before playing this one!

Check out the free demo!

Sent from an alternate dimension, SenTRI corporation robots are occupying various locations on Earth and are preparing for an all out AI takeover. There is only one person left to put an end to this...

Half human, half machine, you are equipped with a mechanical arm that gives special time bending powers, while in the other hand wielding a selection of deadly weapons. Blast your way through the underground facility, smashing robot skulls and going in guns blazing. Can you reach the Central AI Core? Can Earth still be saved?

District Steel is a full locomotion VR action game, inspired by the FPS classics. Brought to you by two long time gamers, first time developers, we hope you enjoy our game!

Key Features

  • Full locomotion gameplay: smooth movement, climbing, rocket jumping, crouch sliding.
  • Intense gunplay against a variety of enemy types.
  • Fully handcrafted sci-fi environments.
  • Optimized for PCVR: forward rendering, baked lighting, MSAA.
  • Quick Save and Load anywhere in the level, take a break whenever you like.
  • And many other quality of life mechanics from the VR games that came before us.

✦ AI summary

District Steel is praised as a polished and creative VR shooter with satisfying slow-motion effects, responsive combat mechanics, and fun weapons that make for an engaging single-player campaign. However, players note the game has suffered from inconsistent development pacing and long gaps between updates, though recent activity has reinvigorated interest, and some criticize the basic enemy AI and occasional design quirks like floating ammo magazines.

I've played the demo of District Steel a few times over the years and assuming this game can safely make it to 1.0, there's something pretty slick and special here. Watching oil spurt out of a robot's head in slow motion just never quite gets old and the slow mo fx themselves are really trippy and consistently fun to witness. The game is fundamentally solid enough without them but when that's the cherry on top, it's a tasty ass cherry. Just wanted to do my meager part to spread the word about the quality of this game as there's a lot of it here already and that's not always the case in my experience with Early Access VR games. Anyone (like me) that was waiting for a sign of life update before picking this up should revisit it, as I'm certainly glad I did. All the best to the devs, you guys clearly have talent.

Pretty fun. This is a recommendation, "but"... :-) If you know VR shooters and are looking for something new with a cool look and a decently long and fun single player campaign, District Steel can deliver. If this is your first VR game or you are looking for emotional arcs, brilliant character acting and AAA graphics, you should probably keep looking somewhere else. I think what you are getting for the price is pretty good. I bought this game ages ago and never really played it. It has however gotten quite a few updates recently, so I decided to jump in. The mechanics are pretty fun and polished enough. It still has some weird choices (not sure if the ammo magazines are supposed to float ABOVE my hand when I grab them), and the enemy AI is not the most amazing and organized I have seen. The game doesn't hold your hand, I actually didn't figure out for a while how to switch handgun weapons even though I have played a ton of VR games. And I ran out of ammo partly because of that, which rarely happens to me (though you can still keep going by punching enemies). But if you are okay with that, I can absolutely recommend buying the game. Even in its Early Access state, it provides quite…

This is a very slept on vr title. the game is solid and good, it is NOT jank. i felt in a time of joy while playing this title. it deserves support from the vr community as it hasnt been very noticed and the devs have some trouble having time to continue the project due to having to work regular jobs to pay bills. it has forced a really great game to sit on the sidelines a bit too much during development. development continues, albeit slow due to those reasons but ,you will find a very enjoyable experience you will want a lot more of. and so. support it. one gripe i had and its just because development was early and is on pause sort of for a brief moment, was lack of being able to map some button binds. other than that.. it wowed me. Word is the update is getting closer to completion and i am ready for that.

Pretty great mission based game. Feels great to play, stealth is well done, lots of weapons to choose from, slow-motion, and locomotion that is well executed. Having a great time so far.
