We spent a lot of time iterating on trigger distance and resistance curves so each weapon feels distinct and closer to its real-life counterpart. <\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re also using headset haptics in subtle ways for example when branches or leaves brush past your head while moving through bushes.<\/p>\n<p>Virtual Hunter originally released in Early Access on Steam in December 2021 and moved to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uploadvr.com\/virtual-hunter-vr-full-release-date\/\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">full release in January 2025<\/a>.
