12 itemsAbout the Game
Orbital Strike VR is a space combat simulator built from the ground up for VR. This is indie VR so we can take some risks. Instead of a cockpit we launch you directly right out of the carrier and into beautiful fleet battles with intuitive hand-jet flight mechanics.
You will progress through a story-rich campaign that can be played as a single-player adventure or you can invite your friends at any time for some co-op action.
As a pilot for the Starfall fleet, you will serve as a hybrid role of fighter ace and forward observer. Close with the enemy and open a path for your fleet using a mixture of personal weapons to destroy corvettes, fighter escorts, turrets, and sub-systems. Then call in the your own capital ships, configure them on the fly, and command them against your enemy.
New pilots can expect a thrilling mix of space flight sim, first-person-shooter, and tactical RTS. All wrapped up in an immersive VR experience with great drop-in co-op support.
Orbital Strike VR supports all the expected comfort and locomotion options with teleporting, smooth locomotion, snap rotation, smooth rotation (with sub-options for snap amounts and rotation speeds), and comfort vignettes. Players can play seated, standing, or within their play area. There's also smooth and third-person external cameras available for audiences and recording gameplay.

FEATURING...
- Starfall Campaign: Unlock the secrets of Epsilon Indi with a fully voice acted campaign from an amazing cast!
- Outbreak Survivor: A prequel mission that tells the story of Hibernia's final fight and the evacuation of the Beta Pegasi system. This is a challenging and replayable mission consisting of multiple waves, boss fights, and a frantic final encounter as you escort your fleet out of a doomed system.
- Free-fly mode: A relaxing and (mostly) safe system to test out combat mechanics or socialize with your fellow pilots.
- Drop-in online co-op: While all gamemodes are fully playable as a single-player experience, at any time you can invite your friends to fly and fight together.
