Our take on Oval
The focus on fast VR movement and multiplayer map-making leaves little room for a story-led campaign or a non-VR mode. Its play options depend on headset use and community-created levels.
What is Oval?
Oval is a VR-only shooter with multiplayer battles and a level editor for creating maps with other players.
Players can share maps and play community-made levels, or add bots to custom maps. The game features six weapons and three ability paths, including light swords, bombs, and flight abilities. Its locomotion system is intended for high-speed movement without motion sickness. Oval also has a competitive game mode built around that movement system. Native headset compatibility includes HTC Vive, Oculus, and WMR.
