Fast Travel Games just rolled out an exciting update for their VR shooter, Action Hero (2024), which takes heavy inspiration from Superhot. This update introduces a chilling new level and an arcade game mode to amplify the action.
Quest headset users, specifically those using Quest 2 and above, can now dive into the ominous ‘Cult of Darkness’ level. Meanwhile, Quest 3 and 3S users get an added thrill with the exclusive arcade game mode.
Delving into the Cult of Darkness level, players find themselves navigating a spooky mission filled with new adversaries like zombies and equipped with fresh weaponry, according to Fast Travel. It’s all about surviving the horrors that await.
On the arcade front, exclusively for Quest 3, players are invited to chase high scores throughout the game’s existing levels. The studio has enhanced these levels with spruced-up visual effects and a revamped user interface, making each shootout more engaging.
Here’s a quick rundown of what’s packed into this update:
6 Core Movies & 6 Director’s Cuts: Jump into an action-packed saga through various cinematic genres. Whether you’re breaking into enemy territories for a major heist or exploring ancient sites, the adventure never stops. After conquering the main courses, try the Director’s Cut versions that promise more intense and quirky challenges.
Comfortable, Cinematic Design: The game keeps you focused on movement over button mashing, with stationary combat complemented by slow-motion sequences that let you unleash your inner action star with style.
Weekly Shot Challenge & Other Features: Want to perfect your scores? Engage in the Weekly Shot Challenge, which stitches four random acts into a single movie, pushing players to compete for the highest scores. Also, keep an eye out for hidden treasures and enjoy a more laid-back vibe with the Relaxed Mode.
Launched exclusively for Quest in December, Action Hero lets you live out epic movie shootouts, all unfolding in a cinematic slow-motion style.
For just $20, this game has been a hit on the Horizon Store, boasting a stellar [4.7/5] rating from around 150 enthusiastic players.
