Is GW: Legacy worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- VR players seeking a game centered on simulated firearms and physical hand interactions
- Sandbox players interested in assembling weapons and experimenting with physics
- Multiplayer groups looking for several shooting modes and community events
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a tightly scripted campaign may bounce off the open-ended sandbox structure.
- Players who prefer one focused game mode may find the mix of construction, experimentation, and shooting activities diffuse.
- Users without VR equipment cannot use the game's VR-based interactions.
Our take on GW: Legacy
The likely bounce point is the physics sandbox itself: players seeking a tightly directed shooter may lose interest when weapon assembly, object construction, and recoil experimentation become central to the experience.
What is GW: Legacy?
A multiplayer VR shooter and gun sandbox centered on physical hand interactions and simulated firearm recoil.
Players can assemble weapons with attachments, join objects through a physics-based gluing system, and create custom constructions. The game includes several modes, including defending a medieval castle with modern weapons and practicing marksmanship in a 4-kilometre VR sniper range. Guns are modeled using real-world physical dimensions, with recoil behavior intended to reflect each weapon. The game also presents a space for experimenting with physics systems and weapon designs. Multiplayer activities and community events are connected through a Discord community.
How GW: Legacy plays
- 01Physical gun handling
- Weapons use real-world dimensions and simulated recoil behavior.
- 02Custom weapon building
- Attachments can be combined to create different firearm configurations.
- 03Physics object assembly
- Objects can be joined together to construct weapons, devices, or other creations.
- 04Castle defense mode
- One mode places modern firearms in a medieval setting where players defend a castle.
- 05Sniper practice range
- A 4-kilometre virtual range provides a setting for long-distance shooting practice.
