    Very similar to the game 'Faster than Light' where you play as the captain of a spaceship in a roguelike galaxy. The game is best played as a first person shooter although ship to ship combat does exist.

    I would say that this is a much more of a multiplayer experience than a single player game.

    The marriage between Faster Than Light and Borderlands makes for one amazing baby. Though the missions are repetitive, the difficulty level and co-op experience are terrific.

    From Other Suns certainly owes a lot to other well-established titles, but by recontextualizing its borrowed ideas in VR, it manages to carve out its own identity in the process. Commanding your own spaceship into uncharted space never gets tiring, and a slew of unlockable ships and weapons along with online multiplayer only further lengthens replayability. Though not without its flaws, From Other Suns will prove to be a worthwhile addition for anyone looking for a novel VR experience. I was never able to make it to Earth, but I’m already looking forward to my next attempt.

    From Other Suns is an ambitious VR title that gets a lot right. Fans of sci-fi are going to find a lot to love here and it’s some of the most fun I’ve had playing cooperative VR to date. There is an immense amount of content and enough variety to mostly prevent things from feeling too stale. The real test for replayibility in a game like From Other Suns though is going to be how well Gunfire can support it post launch and how much the community embraces it.
