A first-person shooter developed by id Software for VR headsets. The player is taken to a UAC facility which is overrun by demons, and assumes the role of a sole survivor of their attack. After death, the protagonist’s consciousness is transferred to a computer matrix which allows him to take control of the robots present on site. The task he has to perform is to annihilate all hellish creatures and stop an incoming catastrophe.
Doom VFR is a first-person shooter developed by id Software for VR headsets, which are required to play. The production came out for PC and PS4, among other platforms.
The action of Doom VFR takes place shortly after the demonic invasion of the UAC facility on Mars known from 2016’s Doom. The player assumes the role of the attack’s sole survivor – after death, his consciousness is transferred to a computer matrix which allows him to control nearby robots. The task he has to accomplish right after activation is to annihilate the hellish monsters and thus stop the incoming catastrophe.
In Doom VFR for PC and PS4, we observe the action from the first-person perspective (FPP). At the core of the gameplay is dynamic and brutal combat, during which we use an extensive and elaborate weapon arsenal that includes a machine gun, a gatling gun, and a shotgun. We face varied enemies on our way: from numerous and ordinary to powerful bosses.
The developers prepared a number of locations for the purposes of the game. These include both narrow, even claustrophobic, underground corridors as well as more spacious arenas. Similarly to other games of this type, the navigation isn’t smooth – the protagonist can teleport on small distances.
The three-dimensional graphics of Doom VFR for PC and PS4 are enjoyable, especially if we consider that it is a VR game. Richly detailed enemy models, environment, and visual effects during firefights are really impressive. The game’s original soundtrack also catches the ear.

However, over the years, developers such as Midway Games and Nerve Software have also been involved in its development. Although the series made its debut on PC, over time it was also released on consoles, as well as on mobile devices.

Game Ratings for Doom VFR Video Game.
Attack of the Fanboy: 2.5 / 5 by Kyle Hanson
DOOM VFR is Bethesda's second major VR release, but it feels like one that is coming a year too late. Poor controls and odd design decisions detract from what would otherwise be an excellent VR shoote
IGN: 8 / 10 by Dan Stapleton
Doom VFR is a brave shooter that proves that VR games don't have to be conservative with movement to work. Fast-paced action with a great stable of recognizable weapons and enemies makes it a challenging rush, once you find your VR legs. It's a shame VFR story didn't get the same self-aware treatment as Doom did, but even if it's all about warping and gunning, that's more than enough.
PlayStation Universe: 7 / 10 by John-Paul Jones
Despite its scattershot approach to control and bite-sized scope, DOOM VFR provides a tantalizing, gore-soaked and adrenaline filled peek at the future of PSVR.
