Battle Arena VR

Battle Arena VR is a multiplayer arena shooter that automatically matches you with opponents for deathmatches. Each map is best suited to 2–5 users and supports up to 10 players. Games have warmup, timed play and cooldown stages, with voice chat available during matches.

Matches and progression

Warmup and cooldown stages give you time to meet other players and get familiar with the landscape and physics. The play stage is time-limited to limit motion sickness and intensity. You can use an open microphone to talk with other players in real time.

Each game earns you experience and level-ups, and changes your position on a leaderboard visible to all players. The lobby also displays your name, XP and level above your avatar, and lets you check the level leaderboard and weekly challenge to see your rank.

The lobby

You can customize your player by choosing a model and color. Tap the Battle Arena sphere to join an active game with other players, or select a level sphere to choose a specific location. You can also switch servers using the ping/server button; player counts are calculated per server and apply to both the lobby and levels.

The game has servers in multiple locations for local communities and low latency. Three servers are currently enabled, with provision to extend coverage to 14 worldwide servers.

Playing a level

A complete tutorial teaches you the controls and your cyborg’s capabilities. In a level, the left thumb joystick moves you in any direction, while the right thumb joystick turns you left or right in snaps and looks behind you when pushed down. Use either hand’s trigger to jump and the right index trigger to fire your active gun. The right-hand A and B buttons switch guns; the left-hand X button displays the score, and Y mutes or unmutes the open microphone. The left menu button returns you to the lobby and controls the number of bots in the game.
