Triangle Factory’s new VR shooter Forefront lands on Meta Quest and Steam VR, promising Battlefield‑style battles for up to 32-player crews. Set in 2035, the game pits four classes—Assault, Medic, Engineer, Sniper—against each other on massive, intense, semi‑destructible maps. Vehicles range from jet skis to tanks, each supporting multiple riders and mounted weapons, turning the headset into a cockpit.

After two years of rotating through titles like Breachers, Android Central’s Nick Sutrich says Forefront reignites the social pull of team‑based shooters. Early‑access lag has vanished in the 1.0 launch, delivering smooth performance on the Quest 3. Integrated voice chat eliminates external microphones, while a newly added combat bow offers instant‑kill precision that feels tactile in VR.

The combination of massive scale, vehicle teamwork and built‑in communication positions Forefront as a rare multiplayer flagship for standalone VR. Its success could encourage other studios to invest in large‑scale, class‑driven experiences beyond niche titles. For now, the game already fuels weekly sessions for Sutrich’s friend group, proving that immersive VR can still deliver the camaraderie of classic shooters, and keeps fatigue low.
