any planned VR support?

i love VR gaming and im craving a survival game in VR with full motion control support. Yes The Forest has had a VR update but its not quite there in terms of controls (though it could change as its in beta). Any plans?

Once you play games in VR its hard to go back to being a pancake gamer. The Forest recently blew us away with its latest VR update. It now has an amazing atmosphere.

This game seems like it would do also... just saying ;)

Oh man, The Forest in VR. This game getting the VR treatment would be amazing.

Absolutley, VR has changed the way i game forever. problem is i LOVE the multiplayer survival, building, crafting genre, and while VR seems like a natural fit due the next level of immersion VR brings, there hasnt been a game that nails it yet. with art style this has, it 'could' be perfect

"Will there be VR support?"
We are unfortunatly not planing on adding VR support. It is atleast not on our priority list at the moment.

I would also like to play this game in VR. It makes sense since there are limited controls and also not so high end visuals. Would create a great feeling.

I just got myself an oculus and the first game i thought of looking for in VR was Raft. It would just be amazing in VR. But being underwater could be an issue. I think a new mining item would have to be added that allows you to get resources from islands or the raft

I heard Subnautica broke with one of their last updates. I tried to play it but couldnt figure out how to switch the items in my hands. (Quest 2)

You already mentioned The Forest.

Other games are:
-No Man's Sky

-ViveCraft (it launches through the minecraft launcher, but the mod itself is free and it only plays on servers running the same version. 16.4 or 16.3, I havent tried but you could probably mod a singleplayer vivecraft server with regular mods, if you use the right versions of them.)

-I heard Ark has "The island" in VR but it's hard to set up. Supposedly it's super fun. You'd have to play it like a survival singleplayer, or face the wrath of the point-and-clickers.

I think that's all of them. I play some games with the headset on just to make the screen bigger. That might be a idea for you. Still have to use keyboard and mouse, and no turning sadly.
