Serious Sam VR hitting early access on October 17

Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope is coming to Steam Early Access on October 17, developer Croteam has announced. They expect it to be in early access for around six months, with the full version boasting more enemies, planets, weapons and bosses, along with a skill tree and other bits and bobs.

You'll need an HTC Vive to play it, and by the looks of it you'll also need a strong stomach: just look at all the things that will be exploding into gory bits before your virtual eyes.

Tom loves exploring in games, whether it’s going the wrong way in a platformer or burgling an apartment in Deus Ex. His favourite game worlds—Stalker, Dark Souls, Thief—have an atmosphere you could wallop with a blackjack. He enjoys horror, adventure, puzzle games and RPGs, and played the Japanese version of Final Fantasy VIII with a translated script he printed off from the internet. Tom has been writing about free games for PC Gamer since 2012. If he were packing for a desert island, he’d take his giant Columbo boxset and a laptop stuffed with PuzzleScript games.
