The latest update to the VR FPS Zero Caliber: Reloaded is now available and adds a full multiplayer PvP mode to the game on Oculus Quest and Meta Quest 2.
PvP mode is only on Quest for now, but PC VR support coming later this year. A major PC VR-specific update will launch in the fall, bringing “most of the improvements and new features of the standalone version [Reloaded] to the PC – including PvP.”
As previously announced, Zero Caliber’s PvP offering includes four modes: Deathmatch (up to 8 players), Team Deathmatch (up to 4v4), Siege (up to 4v4), and Gungame (up to 8 players). These modes are played on six brand new maps.
There are dedicated servers in three regions – NA, EU and SEA – so hopefully most players can play with a low ping. There’s also a new ‘Vote to Kick’ option for all multiplayer modes so you can get rid of annoying players who disrupt sessions online.
The PvP mode adds to a host of options for Zero Caliber: Reloaded players on Quest, which also includes a single-player campaign with co-op support and a survival mode.
Developer XREAL Games says there are plans for more PvP maps, along with support for mods and user-generated content later this year. The studio is also working on cross-play support for PvP modes between Quest and PC VR, which will reportedly arrive by the end of the year “if everything goes according to plan”.
XREAL is also working on Gambit!, a four-player co-op shooter. You can check out some gameplay released earlier this week here.
