Our take on Free Company VR
The emphasis on army control and large battles leaves the campaign structure relatively understated: the stated loop centers on contracts, quests, arena fights, and resource use for expansion rather than a detailed narrative progression.
What is Free Company VR?
Build and lead a mercenary army through large-scale battles, ambushes, arena fights, and quests.
Contracts provide resources for expanding the force. Each soldier can be selected and personalized, equipped, trained, and assigned skills, while the army’s overall composition remains under the player’s control. Battles use physics-based combat with up to 100 participants. Troops can hold vantage points, surround opponents, and alert nearby allies to threats. The game also includes Steam Workshop support for browsing, downloading, publishing, and sharing sandbox scenarios through in-game menus.
