In Death

In Death is a VR shooter with roguelike elements, set in a surreal medieval dream kingdom where Heaven has been abandoned. Its ruins are overrun by forsaken souls, angelic creatures and demons. You venture into the Afterlife to restore Harmony, fighting through procedurally generated areas filled with monsters, mysteries and loot.

Runs and progression

Each run uses a random seed to generate its map, enemy locations and loot locations. There are no save points, and each run can have unpredictable outcomes. An achievement-based progression system carries between sessions and scales the game's difficulty in step with your mastery.

Ranged combat

You fight with a longbow and shield. The shield blocks ranged attacks and defends against close-range melee threats; you can also bash enemies to create time for a close-range headshot. Special arrows come from monster loot, pickups and in-level Reliquaries, where you can power up your bow for tougher encounters.

Movement in VR

A teleport arrow lets you move anywhere you can shoot, and you can switch to it instantly from combat arrows. You can also throw a single-handed teleport shard to strafe, dash around corners or retreat. Classic free movement is available as an option alongside the teleport arrow and shard.

Leaderboards and settings

Global leaderboards rank players in all-time top 10 and 24-hour rankings, with VR players competing together regardless of their VR rig. Personal statistics compare your current run with your best performance. You can play right- or left-handed, seated or standing, and enable or disable snap rotation. Demo mode lets friends try the game without affecting your progression.
