Description: Can you survive The Persistence? Caught in the inexorable pull of a black hole, and with the crew mutated into horrific & murderous aberrations, it’s down to you, a clone of security office Zimri Eder, to save the ship and make the jump back to earth. A brutal VR sci-fi-stealth, horror, roguelike featuring dozens of upgradable gear & weapons that may just be enough to keep you alive long enough to survive The Persistence.
Review: Far too many first-person shooters in VR are too easy to play and thus rather boring. The Persistence is not one of those shooters, but instead is a hard, often demanding game that requires us players to have a lot of…well…persistence! While the scenery doesn’t have a lot of variety you will still find yourself immersed in the spacecraft style halls and often jumping out of your skin at most turns and door unlocks. OK, so The Persistence isn’t perfect, but it is still well worth its asking price and if you like your first-person shooters, you will love this for sure.
