Overview
Requires a virtual reality headset. See system requirements for more information.
With full support for a wide array of online gameplay modes and built-in tools for easy matchmaking and joining active games, Pavlov VR represents one of the most attractive and popular VR FPS experiences available today on the market. After its release in early 2017, this game managed to evolve dramatically, becoming one of the most-played VR games on the PC platform.
Main Features
The core experience found in Pavlov VR is set around the popular cooperative shooter genre, where teams of players compete in various game modes, using realistic weaponry, combat tactics, and a physics-driven world that can realistically react to many user moves.
The game features highly immersive gameplay, which places players in a realistic, virtual environment that simulates combat scenarios across gameplay modes such as “Search And Destroy”, “Deathmatch”, “King of the Hill”, and “Gun Game”. In addition to solo play, players can also team up, talk with each other using realistic proximity voice chat, drive tanks and engage in large-scale battles on large urban and natural maps.
The game offers easy access to features such as AI bots, offline mode, Practice range level, and access to both developer-hosted and community-hosted servers. Talented gamers can extensively mod the game with the set of built-in tools, which can produce not only new gameplay elements but also brand-new maps.
While the game has managed to find phenomenal success over its first five years on the market, many are still noticing that the game is still not super friendly to newcomers who have to quickly adapt to a large array of in-game mechanics, controls, and fast-paced gameplay in live online matches. The game is also sometimes plagued by unstable server infrastructure and lag.
