Chronostrike has just hit the VR scene, bringing a new twist to co-op shooters on the Quest platform, reminiscent of the popular SUPERHOT series. This exciting game comes from the minds at Greensky Games, the team behind Swarm 2. In Chronostrike, time remains at a standstill until you make a move, a concept that fans of SUPERHOT VR will find familiar. The game spans 60 thrilling levels, drawing inspiration from Christopher Nolan’s mind-bending film, Inception. Set in the future year of 2135, the narrative immerses players in a world where digital memories are at risk of being hacked, turning time itself into a strategic tool.
Teamwork is at the core of Chronostrike’s gameplay. As one of two agents, you’ll have to collaborate closely to uncover and thwart a centuries-old conspiracy threatening our planet. The mechanics encourage cooperation; you can share weapons with your partner, dodge and deflect bullets in slow motion, and remember, survival hinges on the fact that a single hit spells your end.
With its release last week, Chronostrike adds to the growing list of SUPERHOT-inspired games in VR. Competing titles include the likes of Action Hero from Fast Travel Games, which offers an immersive film-making angle as you dive into making various movie scenes. In contrast, Allware’s COLD VR flips the script by having time slow down when you move, offering a fresh take on the concept. Meanwhile, Vendetta Forever spices things up with a ‘Hot Action’ modifier for those looking for an extra challenge.
Now available for $25, Chronostrike invites players to test their reflexes and strategic thinking on the Meta Quest platform. It’s a must-try for those seeking an engaging and innovative VR experience that combines the thrill of quick thinking with the excitement of cooperative play.
