    VR has never been this exciting or immersive. A few things they could work on when it comes to matchmaking but once that’s figured out Firewall Ultra will be a “game” changer ;) 10/10 right now and 100000/10 when the matchmaking is solved

    This game should not be clasified as a VR title with locomotion controllers. You cant do there basicaly anything withou pressing a button. You want to reload your weapon? Sure, press a button and watch a laggy animation. Do you wanna stab someone with a knife? Press a button to see the animation. Do you wanna throw grenade?

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For me this game gets a 10, ok there are issues which we all should be confident in that the First Contact team will sort over the comming weeks.
    Let's not dwell on the negatives as all games have them but focus on the direction the game is taking us! The playstyle has altered and we all need to adjust and give constructive feedback to the team ,after all the longevity of this game is paramount. For me I'm loving the detail , the light and dark areas add real immersion and all the little details in the maps that often get overlooked.
    I played with total random players last night and had game after game was very entertaining.
    So please I ask you before comming here to just moan about controls ,connection , and my favourite "oh it's too dark I can't see to rush"....let's get behind the team report any bugs and finish the game together.

    Complete **** It feels like a flat shooter forced to be in VR. There is nothing good about this game. They locked weapons and character behind a premium and time limited battle pass, the whole **** map is dark so you have to use flashlight all the time, making all the other attachments useless.
    The PvE mode is also **** Enemies with shotguns will spawn 2 meters behind you and one shot

    Firewall Ultra has raised the bar for VR FPS once again. The gameplay, graphics and eye tracking are unlike anything else in VR today.

    Matchmaking is broken and it's riddled with bugs atm, but that can be eventually patched. The core mechanics of the game, however, are confused and confusing, and even if this game was intending to target VR newcomers, it's really treating them like they are idiots and couldn't possibly understand real world movements, and instead would feel more at home with flatscreen game mechanics.Matchmaking is broken and it's riddled with bugs atm, but that can be eventually patched.

    First Contact has hit it out of the park this time with Ultra. The new dedicated servers make finding a match really easy and fun. The weapon reloads and cool knife animations are really well done. It is basically the counterstrike of VR. The accuracy is a high point of the game as it feels where i point and shoot is where it actually goes. This is by far my favorite VR team based shooter.First Contact has hit it out of the park this time with Ultra. The new dedicated servers make finding a match really easy and fun.

    An online team-based shooter that completely overlooks the potential of VR. Firewall Ultra provides a somewhat shallow experience, with matchmaking times often exceeding the actual gameplay, and meager rewards. Despite the relatively limited library of PS VR2, there are better titles available.
