Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game itself is very well-made, offering solid mechanics and immersive gunplay, but the experience you’ll actually have depends heavily on who you’re playing with and that’s where things start to fall apart.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
22 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The weapon handling, gunplay, and game modes are some of the best you can find in VR.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Clean visuals for quick reads under headset constraints; positional audio and proximity voice chat add tension (and hilarious chaos).
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
14 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Whenever I don't have anything else to play, I often come back to Pavlov because playing with friends can be one of the most fun experiences in gaming.
