Our take on Beyond the City VR
The bounce point arrives when tower placement ends and direct weapon control begins. Players expecting to manage the whole defense from an overhead view must instead enter an archer tower, magic tower, or turret and handle the attack themselves.
What is Beyond the City VR?
Beyond the City VR combines tower defense with first-person weapon control in a VR setting.
The commander view gives a broad map perspective for placing towers, using available resources, and upgrading structures with in-game money. The demo includes three tower types with different attack modes. After arranging the defenses, the player can enter an archer tower, magic tower, or turret and fight from that position. The game presents two connected modes: macro-level defense planning and first-person micro-operation. Enemy attacks arrive in multiple waves featuring swordsmen, priests, WM warriors, and summoned forest demons. Combat options include shooting arrows, casting magic, and artillery bombardment. The player switches between commander and soldier roles while defending against the invaders.
