🚀Fleet Deployment Commencing

Commanders! The hangar doors are open. BattleGroupVR2 is officially in Early Access. It’s been a wild ride getting here, but now it’s your turn to take the helm and help shape where this project goes next.

This first build has many of the core systems up and running — enough to really get a feel for how the game plays day-to-day. You can explore, fight, command fleets, get ejected into space... Here’s what’s in right now:

Current build includes:

  • Open World (foundations): free-roam sectors with encounters, salvage, and exploration loops. More story missions and side quests to come.

  • Gauntlet Mode: endurance combat runs with escalating threats and score chasing.

  • Conquest (first pass): sectors, unrest, and faction control — more in-depth community interactions coming soon.

  • Endless Mode: survive as long as you can against escalating waves of enemies — no breaks, no mercy. Top scores make the leaderboard for all to envy.

  • Missions and Ships: a variety of scenarios and ship classes to test your tactics and builds.

  • Voice Commands (experimental): issue orders verbally.

  • Added a supply delivery mission between stations to support friendly factions.

Gameplay & Systems

  • Added a Global News feed showing everyone’s contributions across the map.

❤️ Thank you for your support!

Early Access is a big step for me, and I’d love your help making it better. BattleGroupVR2 is 15% off right now for launch week, so if you’ve been on the fence, grab it and join the Discord to tell me what’s working (and what’s not).

💬Please leave a review when you get a chance!

Reviews on Steam also make a huge difference for visibility — even a few words go a long way. Appreciate the support as always. Thanks for playing, and I’ll see you out there on the bridge! 🖖
