About Warhammer: Vermintide VR - Hero Trials

Please note: This title is made for HTC Vive only and is a short, free VR experience.

Skaven beware - there’s a new hero in town!

Take on the role of an aspiring hero proving yourself to join the ranks of the legendary Heroes of Ubersreik. In order to do so you must show off your fighting skills when faced against the vile Skaven in short but intense missions. Simply pick up your weapon of choice from the rack and kill some rat-men. Or if you need backup, have a friend join you in your quest to become heroes!

Battle the Skaven forces in the Hall of the Poison Feast mission or simply hang with the heroes in the Red Moon Inn in the FREE Version of Vermintide VR.

KEY FEATURES

LEVEL 1 | Red Moon Inn: Take a moment to relax with your favourite heroes from Vermintide in the Red Moon Inn, explore the various items you can pick up and move around the room.
LEVEL 2 | Hall of the Poison Feast: Stand your ground in the cold and ancient halls of Castle Drachenfels.
TEAM UP | 2 Player Co-op: Join forces with a friend to prevent the Skaven from completing their evil plans
EXPLORE | Warhammer Fantasy like never before: Step into the Warhammer Fantasy world and take on the life-sized Skaven. Or pick up one of the miniatures in the Red Moon in and chuck them around the room
WEAPON OF CHOICE | How should the Skaven die?: Choose your weapon and pierce, burn, stab or shoot the vile rat-men
THE CANDLE | Time is Ticking: The candle will slowly burn down during the course of your mission, marking time until victory or defeat.

For the full VR experience:


Owners of Warhammer: End Times - Vermintide will receive two exciting new VR missions - Reikwald and Ungdrin Rail.
LEVEL 3 | Reikwald: Take down the vile rat-men in the weathered forest outside of Ubersreik.
LEVEL 4 | Ungdrin Rail: Survive the oncoming Skaven as you travel through the mine tunnel in search of the exit.

Never thought I would not recommend a free VR Port of a Game I love The issues: - Extremly blurry without tinkering in the settings.ini - Still blurry at distances even when you set the correct resolution in the seetings.ini - Left Right Hand are switched, you can fix it with changing "borderless_fullscreen = true" - It's a Tech-Demo, extremly similar to the Steam-VR Archery Mini-Game - The Mining Cave level is bugged, so that you are just starring at a white screen hurting your eyes - The Bow is the most fun, the Gun is the best and the Staff is useless. I spent more time tinkering, than playing.

Hero Trials is basically Vermintide’s “what if we took the Skaven problem… and put it directly in your personal space?” experience. You’re not just fighting ratmen—you’re fighting ratmen in VR, which means they’re close enough to violate your imaginary bubble and your real-life dignity at the same time. You load in like: “Alright. I am a hero. I will be calm and tactical.” Five seconds later a Skaven leaps at you, you flail like a windmill in a hurricane, and your living room becomes a full-contact sport. My headset fogged up from FEAR. The trials format is great because it’s short, punchy, and perfect for that “one more run” loop where you keep telling yourself you’ll stop after the next attempt, and then suddenly you’ve done 12 trials and your arms are filing a complaint with HR. Also, the weapons feel *amazing* when you’re in the zone. Nothing hits like landing a clean swing… and immediately feeling like a legendary warrior—right before a rat sneaks in and reminds you that you’re still a human with knees and reaction time. **Pros:** * Vermintide chaos in VR = intense and hilarious * Satisfying melee when it clicks * Great “quick session” structure (lies, it’s never quick) …

3/5 the game works with only the pistol also playing on Quest 3 and nice zombies mode Equivalent to COD but the configuration is set on different headset but understandable since it was a HTC headset originally. played it on the Based Distro OS that's all. Whoever made this tech demo good on you but it's the lighting needs to be more visible as areas are a little too dark for the VR Game. overall okay but a bit of polish needs to be be brought in to make the tech demo better.

Not worth installing for free, save your time. Stationary tower defence... Bad graphics, everything looks blurry even closeby, nowhere the resolution of trailer or screenshots in store page. Controls only explained for HTC vive controllers. It didnt crash and launched well, good fps. One of the worst VR games i have tried. And i have played Subnautica VR and No mans sky VR. Why did they bother making such crap. Valve Index VR set.

i only have 0.4 hours because its not playable with a quest 3, they should put oculus vive only or at least update it to work like most other vr games

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.
