Dead Effect 2 VR is fully released NOW!
Dead Effect 2 VR Patch Notes — October 3, 2017
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
D-Day has come,
We are unbelievably excited to announce that Dead Effect 2 VR is out of Early Access and fully available NOW on Steam!
After lots of weeks spent frantically digging up lingering bugs and squashing them sometimes unnecessarily hard and trying to code your requests and suggestion inside the game, we are ready to present our action-packed VR FPS game, now with a lot more immersive content and features.
If you’re a long-time patron of Dead Effect 2 VR since the game was released in Early Access in June 2017, we can’t thank you enough for helping us reach this crucial moment. It´s been a long four months of community-driven development, and it truly wouldn´t be the game it is today without all your support, suggestions and ideas through Early Access.
Also, we can't wait to see what everyone thinks about Dead Effect 2 VR in full package. It includes a number of new exciting fixes and changes that make the game even more fun. Heavy weapons, fist fighting, bashing the enemies with weapons, tons of small improvements you've asked for...
If you’re new to the team, we’re thrilled to have you! Join the community and be notified of all the latest Dead Effect 2 VR news here.
