About
Enter the world of ALTAIR and fight against the army of LAWS left behind roaming around Vastus Isle in this map-based sword fighting virtual reality game. Team up with your friends and experience the feeling of transcendent battles in virtual reality.
The World of ALTAIR
Set on the floating island of Vastus Isle, this place was once used as a magic workshop. The place is now in ruins and exploited to run experiments with AI. Take on battles to push back the army of LAWS (Lethal Autonomous Weapons Systems) that are roaming around and help Stella, the humanoid AI left in charge of ALTAIR, to maintain peace on Vastus Isle.
The Battle System
Move from map to map while enjoying the feeling of transcendent sword fighting.
Take advantage of your surroundings by climbing and gliding to easily take on enemies. Experience a wide range of attacks only possible in the virtual reality world, such as Shockwaves and Surge Mode.
User-Friendly User Interface
A simplified and intuitive user interface was developed to increase the sense of virtual reality and not interrupt the game flow. The Tablet will be your main hub to change equipment, check your characters status and more.
Cooperative Multiplayer
Team up with other three players from all around the world and take on enemies with your friends. The game supports cross-play between Quest 2 and PC virtual reality and features a native voice chat system.
