Rank17’s BLADESHIELD, an intense sci-fi action wave defender, is now available on SteamVR for only $2.39.
Take on the role of a lone security officer aboard the transport vessel Titan-X and stop a rogue A.I. dead in its tracks in this immersive, action-packed VR experience for the HTC Vive.
E.L.L.E.N. (Engaging Linguistic Learning Electronic Network), the ship’s advanced computer, has gone rogue — instructing the ship’s replicator to create an army of murderous robots. As the only able-bodied and armed human on the ship, you now must face off against the killer machines to make sure all civilians get out safely.
Arm yourself with two powerful BladeShields and take on wave after wave of deadly robots to beat the A.I. at its own game. Switch between the light blade and proton shield in each hand — blocking with the shield and swinging the blades for maximum damage. Sawbots, blaster drones, and mega turrets are out to get you — so make sure to block and deflect incoming laser bolts from enemies to charge up your blade. Once you’re done, smash the floor with your energy blade to unleash a massive EMP blast!
