Experience a realistic hunting simulation built for VR

EXPLORE THE WILDERNESS

Discover a massive 64 km² open world of forests, mountains, rivers and valleys, where wildlife moves, feeds, rests and reacts to your presence.

TRACK & HUNT WILDLIFE

Hunt red deer, fallow deer, wild boar, European hare, foxes and more, each with unique behavior and senses. Animals can see, hear and smell you, so every hunt rewards patience, preparation and careful movement.

Track animals through the wilderness, use hunting towers and callers, read the wind, or stalk your prey through the terrain. Dynamic weather, changing conditions and fresh animal spawns make every hunt different.

MASTER YOUR WEAPONS

Handle rifles, bows and shotguns with realistic weapon mechanics and ballistics. Learn shot placement and make every shot count. Choose from three difficulty modes, with higher difficulties giving animals more realistic senses and greater rewards.

BUILD YOUR TROPHY LODGE

Collect trophies from your greatest hunts and create your own lodge with a free-placement trophy system. Choose poses and mounts, then place your trophies wherever you want.

HUNT TOGETHER

Hunt solo or team up with up to 5 friends in online 6-player co-op. Explore, hunt, share strategies and celebrate your best trophies.

Whether you're an experienced hunter or simply love the outdoors, Virtual Hunter lets you slow down, explore and experience the thrill of the hunt in VR.

Best hunter on meta quest

This is by far the best meta quest hunting vr game, besides the fact that the map is the biggest and best looking one on meta quest, the way the animal's react to you is so real. Hunting them and Stockin them, just feels so good, by far my favorite thing is Tracking them and looking at the beautiful world, and it's so Satisfy when you get your animal. Great job guys 👏 👍

🏹 An Immersive Hunting experience!!

Virtual Hunter VR is definitely more of a slow paced and patient hunting experience rather than an arcade shooter. Tracking your prey properly actually matters, and even the type of shot you take can completely affect the outcome of a hunt. The realism is what stood out most to me though. How you move through the environment and the amount of noise you make genuinely matters, so rushing around will usually just scare everything away before you even get a chance to line up a shot. The atmosphere and environments on Quest 3 are solid too, especially when you’re slowly moving through the forests trying not to disturb the wildlife around you.

Has potential

I am a real life hunter. As well as a long time player of The hunter COTW, Hunting Simulator, and Way of the Hunter. This is easily the best VR hunting game you can play. I sincercly hope this game keeps its gun and animal mechanics. But It needs more animals and guns Specifically, we need Modern Sporting Rifles, semiauto shotguns as well as the old schools like muzzleloaders and lever guns. The game would benfit from waterfowl hunting with decoys as well. The game could also use a few more outposts to fast travel to as well as a system for antler scoring because, as far as I've seen, the antlers on male Red deer are the same. This game has an insane amount of potential to be unputdownable. The bones are there, the devs have a chance to make it incredible.

I didn’t know we were hunting for bugs.

I have been stuck in the Firing Range for too long now. The game is asking me to release the controller which I do but the message remains and the game traps me in the one spot unable to activate the options to escape. The weapon handling is shoddy and an auto-reload would be handy. I’m using Metaquest 3 so there shouldn’t be any performance issues. I look forward to your 1st official update for this application. However, not having seen a single animal to hunt yet, I cannot give you more than a one star rating yet.

Fun hunting in single player vs co op

Good times in single player but in co op seems the game is extremely difficult as the settings don't seem to apply oddly anuff. Last night I enjoyed a more causal hunt and stalk and I saw more game , got nice and close made perfect shots etc etc. In co op this was not the case much fewer animals with very long shots of 200 yds and they were much more spooky and skittish, didnt enjoy the hrs if co op nearly as much as the difficulty ramp up a ton and comfort game play settings don't seem to work we were stuck in professional mode it seems. But singke player was way more realistic and enjoyable with lots of close up action.
