    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.

    They absolutely crushed it on this game. The most polished game I've ever played in VR. The graphics, gunplay and multi player is amazing. Eye tracking is also next level. I'm looking forward to manual reload which the devs said is coming in a later release.

    The new gold standard for PSVR2 games. This was made from the ground up in Unreal Engine 5 and you can absolutely tell the benefits that brings. Visually it has no peers and the modes + gunplay are amazing. Great community too!

    This game is amazing. Eye tracking is incredible. All the new features make this game so much more immersive than anything else out there. I think the devs really listened to all the OG players and gave us what we wanted. Squad up!!

    This is the best VR game out there. They really push the PSVR2 to the limits. Eye tracking is used when throwing grenades and it is very intuitive. The weapons feel so great with the way the whole gun vibrates. You can really feel the resistance on the trigger. The game has a lot of cool touches, like how you look away or close your eyes to avoid flashbangs.

    The action was intense and strategic. This is not a game where you run around guns blazing. Teamwork really helps a lot. I love the tactile nature of it.

    The graphics look amazing and I really feel immersed. This is not just an incremental upgrade over Firewall Zero hour, this is a quantum leap!    … Expand

    Firewall Ultra has raised the bar for VR FPS once again. The gameplay, graphics and eye tracking are unlike anything else in VR today. The game was built on Unreal 5 and is right on the cutting edge of what can be accomplished. An absolute must have for any VR enthusiast - -its the future of gaming.

    I’ve played this game for two days straight. The eye tracking is awesome and the graphics are the best I’ve seen since RE8. I like the automatic reloads with the button instead of doing it manually. Definitely my favorite game on PlayStation VR

    The original Firewall game was really good... but this is another level. Eye tracking feature is cool, but the game play itself is full on intense. Excited to see the community grow!!

    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.

    Just a pure game with an excellent interface and gameplay. Highly recommend this to anyone looking to play VR FPS. Has almost like a halo 3 feel. Playing this made me miss what that was and thankfully this game brought it back for me. So happy to have come across this.

    This game is fantastic. Great mechanics and aesthetics; the developer(s) successfully created a unique style that fully immerses you into the game. This is what next-gen gameplay is supposed to be like! Great work 10/10.

    Despite some of the rough edges and bugs the actual gameplay is some of the best and most fun I have ever experienced in VR! If you want a super exact gun handling and door opening simulator it's not that but if you want a super fun tactical and strategic multiplayer shooter game in VR that keeps you wanting to play round after round then this game is THE ONE!

    Firewall Ultra is a 10. The game's attention to detail is astounding, whether it's the meticulously crafted landscapes, intricate character designs, or the dynamic weather effects that make you feel like you're truly within the game. The gameplay mechanics seamlessly merge with the VR environment, creating a sense of presence and immersion. My squad is yet to lose a match in this game.

    Wow!!! The game was an absolute delight to engage with. Realism is next level as well as the gameplay and storyline kept me heavily involved and engaged the entire time. Clearly developers went all out on this one.

    Firewall: ultra is not an exceptional game like the first version and the most important game of the platform it was released on. But it’s definitely entertaining and fun (especially with friends) and you can spend a lot of time in it.

    Could be one of PSVR2s best shooters, but is held back by some baffling design decisions.

    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.
