Alright, so there I was, just minding my own business when I stumbled into this whole thing about a VR shooter called Forefront. You ever just fall down a rabbit hole? Yeah, that’s how it went.
Anyway, here’s the deal — the game’s like, straight out of a Battlefield fever dream, but for VR. We’re talking teams of 16 vs. 16, big spaces, vehicles zipping around all over. Tanks, choppers, jeeps — you name it. It’s got that “run and gun” chaos we love in shooters. Makes my head spin just thinking about it!
Oh, and the open alpha — they just dropped it on everyone outta nowhere. Like, surprise! So you got folks scrambling to test it, throw in their two cents, and basically give the systems a good old stress-test. Feels like chaos, but the good kind, in a way, you know?
Now, the studio behind this, Triangle Factory — they’re the same folks who did Breachers. If you’ve played that, you probably have a clue about what we’re dealing with here. Solid gunplay, nifty gadgets, all that jazz. But what’s wild is, most VR shooters I’ve seen cap out at, like, 4 vs. 4 or maybe push it to 8 vs. 8. So 16 vs. 16? It’s bonkers. But hey, dream big or go home, right?
And listen, if you wanna jump into this chaos, the alpha’s live now, but only for 24 hours — like a flash in the pan kinda deal. And just a heads up, it’s also running from August 15th to 17th. So if you’re keen, I’d hit up their official Discord. That’s where you’ll find all the signup details.
And let’s not forget, once it’s out, you’ll be able to play on Quest 2, Quest 3, Quest 3S, and Steam. So, lots of options, right?
Okay, I think I covered everything… or I might have missed something. Honestly, I kinda lost my train of thought somewhere around imagining tanks in VR. Sounds like a blast. Or maybe just another mid-week distraction. Who knows.
