War Dust

War Dust is a large-scale multiplayer VR shooter built around fast-paced, arcade-style combat. You fight in 32-versus-32 Conquest battles across expansive maps, capture control points and defeat enemies. Matches contain 64 soldiers in total: official rotation servers fill spaces not occupied by real players with bots.

Battles and movement

Battlefields include vehicles and dynamic day-and-night environments. You can use squad-based spawning, paraglide, fly and drive vehicles to move across the map. The game has four official servers: US East, the default, plus EU, Asia and Aus.

Classes and equipment

Choose from four classes: Assault, Engineer, Support and Scout. An XP system lets you unlock weapons, accessories, skins and ammunition types. The game includes five types of vehicles, 15 types of guns, three support spawnables, two types of grenades and over 80 weapon skins.

Gunplay is designed for arcade action rather than strict realism. Guns have recoil and spread, and you load weapons and remove spent magazines by physically handling them with the grab button. Weapons sit in a customizable virtual belt around your waist, which returns to its default setup after you die.

Custom maps and servers

War Dust supports modding for Conquest and Team Deathmatch maps, as well as customizable public or password-protected servers. A template in the game files lets you modify maps, weapons, vehicles and player avatars, and modding is compatible with the Unity engine.

Player movement

Choose between thumbstick, pro-loco and fitrun locomotion. Thumbstick uses the non-dominant hand, pro-loco uses the top controller buttons to propel you, and fitrun responds to jogging or bobbing in place. Movement can be directed by your controller or headset, and turning can be smooth or snap-based. You can play sitting or standing.
