    This game is a masterpiece. I've been playing a couple hours every night and can't believe how immersive it is. I really love the survival and scrapping aspects and how nervous I get when a swarm comes at me. Highly recommend checking this out

    I love this game, it's like if you really were into the game. If you enjoy with zombies, this is your game. If you like the walking dead, it will be the best game you ever play with the VR.

    The graphics are just fine, not the best graphics you will ever see, but its ok. The sound is incredible, terrifying, it feels like if you were there, surrounded by

    A true masterpiece way ahead of its time. If every game had such in depth crafting, movement, combat, and immersion, then VR would no longer be the wave of the future. The future would be today.

    Entirely smooth and polished, graphics are artsy and beautiful, and the mechanics and weapons are thoughtful with design. It reminds me of Last Of Us for VR. Slow based, story driven, survival zombie game.

    Truly a great experience so far. The environment is alive and full of so much detail. The game also has great movement making for a great immersed gaming experience. The walking dead allows you to really get and understanding of what it would be like to survive during a zombie appocolypse.

    First of all I'm horrible with horror games, but somehow I can play this, even though it's in VR and really well done. I've been watching videos of this game for months and hyping myself up for the launch (dangerous, I know), yet the game lives up to my hype and exceeds it.

Best game made so far for virtual reality in my opinion. Liked this way more than AW. All the mechanics are so well done and intricate. You really feel like your trying to survive the apocalypse, with limited resources and weapons breaking. Zombies are terrifying when your indoors and clearing the rooms one by one. Zombies outside don't give me much issues as I feel like I can see everyone, but the feeling that any time you're indoor a zombie can pounce you is terrifying, yet something keeps me soldiering on and checking all the rooms until my backback is full, after that I bolt fast. You can't take too long either since the bell will start to ring after while and hordes of zombies will arrive. Love this game! Definitely worth the purchase and the developers deserve all the support. Also the devs confirmed that it will be a cross-buy for the quest, which is bloody awesome! Haven't even finished the game and I'm already longing for a DLC! Keep up the good work! Expand

    Seriously, best game ever!!! Love the world, depth of character, and most of all zombie dismemberment! 10 out of 10! I'm looking forward to more edgy VR games from this studio.

    As far as VR games goes, this is by far one of the more polished and crafted. I'm not a big fan of horror games but I really enjoy the TWD universe so this was an easy "must play now" for me. Some of the mechanics are bit "gamey" but the immersive environments and story-telling pull you back in. I'm really enjoying it!

    Brutal, engaging, and a hell of a time! A large open world where choices matter, exploration is a must, and survival is tough. Explore by day, return to home base by night or risk losing your supplies to the hordes that come as the evening church bells ring.

    A totally awesome, must have VR experience! There are so many ways to kill zombies. You can really get dark with the different weapons you can use to dismember you zombie. The VR experience doesn't get you motion sick at all! I have been in it for hours with no affect. It can be played sitting down or standing, both have been great!

    I really hope they bring in coop in the future! The

    Amazing game which throw you in the world of the walking dead, where every action you do is as realistic as it comes. It is a masterpiece among the walking dead game franchise.

    A true next level VR experience. The first time a door broke with zombies rushing at me I dropped my gun in a panic and died. 10/10! No better way to describe this then a VR masterpiece.

    VR games don't get better than this. Top of the line quality across the board - from voice acting, to interactions, to storyline, to combat, to crafting. This game has it all. Saints & Sinners stands alone. As close to a masterpiece as we can get in the current generation!

    Just beat this game and this is the first time in a game where I actually was sweating. Should i do this? What happens if I do that? If I were to point out what is the best part of this masterpiece, I would have to say it's how immersive this game can be, even better now with the added physical crouching. Gotta love it with the devs actually take the time to respond to the community.

    I have to say, it's not very often you can collect the heads of all your enemies in your base. Adding to that the ability to climb some buildings to get in though windows is awesome! The game is already nearly a masterpiece, really hope to see future DLC story packs!

    Masterpiece incoming! I can't stop playing! The action feels so visceral and satisfying. Exactly what I wanted for a zombie hunt. Ok I've stopped playing for long enough. Back to the death fest!

    I am mind-blown about this games, initially I thought this game was just going to be a hack and slash experience. But i was surprise with the story content and the morale questioning choices that you have to make. It is a masterpiece among the Vr games out there at the moment a true hidden gem.

    I'm really surprised by this game. I wasn't expecting it to work so well in VR. I really like the exploration aspect. I also love the fact that you can sneak around instead of fighting head-on. Applause to the devs. They made a masterpiece.

    Check this game out for sure. I may only have 1.5 hours here, but I have a lot more on the Oculus store. This game built up hype perfectly, and rightfully so. The game is beautiful, actually has a great story, with sidequests, and other things you can do after the game has finished.

The game is beautiful, actually has a great story, with sidequests, and other things you can do after the game has finished. It's not like Arizona, where you can't walk, can't stab zombies with spoons, broken bottles, axes, shivs, kitchen knifes or even walk around. Everything I just listed is something that Arizona can't do, while S&S can. The developers are frequently pushing out updates to the consumers liking. For example, not many people enjoyed the fact you couldn't crouch irl, and it made them feel less immersive. They've fixed that. Also, for streamers there's separate options, and for people who want to feel more immersed, there's an option that can make the zombies respond to YOU. (By that, I mean they'll react to the sounds coming from your mic) Expand

    One of the best VR experiences so far. Immersion is key. You feel fear because of the ambientation.

    I have been having a blast with this title, in fact its the main reason I bought my Index. From the start you are rooted in the world that reminds me of the comics I used to read when I was younger. Check it out for sure.

    If Half-Life: Alyx sold as many VR headsets as it should have, every new adopter needs to make Saints & Sinners a priority. Although it obviously lacks the polish that Valve was able to bring to their juggernaut, it’s another hearty single-player offering that was not only built from the ground up for VR, but showcases the exciting advancements unique to the platform. It’s an easy recommendation, even to people like me who thought they were sick of zombies.

    I had a lot of fun with The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners. The combat is fun and downright brutal at times. The story falters at the end, but it's an enjoyable ride that carries you through the 10-20 hour journey. VR desperately needed a longer experience like this, and Skybound and Skydance have delivered with great success. This isn't a four-hour, story-driven, escape room-style game. It's not a shooter on rails or an arena shooter. This is a full-fledged game, and it's great. This is not quite the "killer app" that VR needed, but it's one massive step in the right direction for VR. Any owner of a dedicated PC VR headset owes it to themselves to buy and play this game. Saints & Sinners sparks hope in me that VR still has a bright future ahead — even if that future is a dark, damp New Orleans.

    The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners is a great game. It's just that maybe it's not a great game for you. Maybe, like me, you don't have your VR legs enough to enjoy it. Maybe you want a little bit more from the PC hardware you have to run it on and won't accept the compromises this game makes. Maybe you just have TWD fatigue. If those things don't stand in your way, then what is on offer is an incredible and immersive experience. A well-developed virtual playground to craft and battle your way through a rich world and story that is only let down by an implementation that just screams compromise to make way for a PSVR release.
