Buy from Steam or Oculus Store?
I'd like to purchase through Steam so I can get on the Beta branch. But I wonder if buying through Oculus might get me native support or something?

The Steam version includes the Oculus native version. When you click the game in Steam to launch it, you'll be prompted if you want to launch in SteamVR mode or native Oculus mode (or you can right click to see that option as well). Once you've launched it once, it should show up in the recent games list in Oculus Home.

I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks.

I have an Oculus Rift and have it on Steam. It's always worked fine for me.

I always buy fitness games on Steam as it shows you how much time you've played, both in the last two weeks, and since purchase.

I find that really motivating, alomost 50 hours on Thrill of the Fight, and 100 on BoxVR! Putting in some serious time on Beat Saber now too, over 20 hours.

I find that feature essential for motivation now so always buy fitness games from Steam.

But this game works fine on Steam anyway so just buy on whichever platform you prefer.

You can make it really easy with the customisation menu, make their chins so weak that you can destroy them with punches. The caveat however is that you need to beat them first to activate it!

But really the idea is to get fitter! Keep playing and your cardio will improve, you'll lose weight and you'll start winning fights,

I'm 44 with pulmonary fibrosis meaning I only have 50 percent of my lung capacity. When I started I could barely finish a three round fight, now I set them for 12 rounds and I have to make the oppoenent's chin stronger to ensure they are able to last the distance.

Took me a few months of training, as I said above I've got 50 hours in this alone, and 100 in BoxVR.

BoxVR is great training for this game btw. Do a couple hours of that a week and you'll find this a lot easier.
