I won’t lie… at the very beginning, Nick and I talked mainly about making the game for PC only. If players liked it, the next project was supposed to be a multiplayer title built on the IRON NEST system - co-op, PvP, or maybe both…. That was the plan even before we officially started development.

But after the warm reception the game received (mostly thanks to the shorts going viral across social media) our perspective changed = now it looks like the first thing in the pipeline after the Steam launch in mid-2026 will actually be porting IRON NEST to other platforms!

We definitely want to bring it to the major consoles, but lately we’ve also been seriously considering VR, since so many people keep asking about it. There are only two of us, and we’re absolute control freaks (🙃), so we don’t really want to hand the project over to a porting studio (which, in that case, would probably be the easiest solution). We’ll see what our capabilities allow… but there’s a good chance that if the PC release goes smoothly, IRON NEST will gradually make its way onto more and more platforms… until it conquers the entire gaming universe (or one of us will just drop dead from overwork), Sir!

PS: Thank you for following our project! We still can’t believe so many of you are here with us… 🫡

I Just watched RCE's video and immediately thought I'm all in if this has a VR option.

PS the flat2VR guys might be of help ;-)

Be nice to work together to play this. Looks like a lot of fun.

Thank you for your reports.

High Command values the voice of its Operators above all else, and every report has been recorded in the journal.

You can be certain that, thanks to you and your brothers, the VR port has moved from “we were not even thinking about it” to “we know we want to make it happen.”

However, the details still need to be worked out, so please give us time before we issue an official announcement on this matter.

We prefer to announce confirmed plans rather than promise too much too early and risk disappointing you later.

But as I said, we are certain that we want to bring IRON NEST to VR. So at this point, the question is more when the announcement will come, not if it will happen...

Guys, just reach out to the Flat2VR devs. I am sure they can support in handling the VR port while you are focusing on the game. I am sure it will be a huge success for you anyways.

+1 for vr. It is a natutal fit. All the interactions are already very natural/ suitible for hands, the space is confined, multiple stations fit in room space. Of course full support for doing it right and taking your time, as with the game itself. Will get the game on release regardless. Glory to Castle.
