Our take on Astro Hunters VR
The social choice is prominent, but the central risk is equally important: a failed expedition removes all carried equipment. That loss gives gathering, storage and preparation a larger role than the alliance-or-betrayal framing alone suggests.
What is Astro Hunters VR?
Astro Hunters VR is a PvPvE extraction shooter set on a hostile planet.
Players take on missions for the Mothership, explore varied terrain, collect gases, liquids, metals and other materials, and use dedicated tools for gathering. Crafting stations support production of inhalers, ammunition, weapon parts and other equipment. The arsenal includes pistols, rifles, rocket launchers, machine guns, shotguns and sniper rifles, with upgrades and elemental modifications involving fire, plasma, electricity and acid. Expeditions can involve cooperation, combat against other players, or both. Items may be stored, sold or traded, but death causes carried equipment to be lost.
