Metal: Hellsinger VR re-tools the rhythm shooter for headbanging in a headset

Rhythm shooter Metal: Hellsinger has you circle-strafing Quake-style level layouts at high-speed while you shoot demons to the beat. I meet the news that it's getting a VR version this year with some trepidation, therefore. Do I really want to vomit on the beat?

Headbanging rhythm game, rated 96% on Steam, is coming to VR soon

Few games feel like entirely obvious candidates to port over to virtual reality, but Metal: Hellsinger is one of these games, and we now have confirmation that a VR version is coming in 2024. At the time of writing it still holds a colossal 96% positive rating overall having released in September 2022.


We see Metal: Hellsinger as one of the best rhythm games on PC, and provided that this port lives up to expectations, it should debut as one of the best VR games in recent memory. Virtual reality is already having a great year, following on from the success of the Meta Quest 3 last year, and big titles making the leap will only help strengthen its appeal.

Get ready to be fully immersed in metal and mayhem. Step into the body of the Unknown in full VR and become a true demon of vengeance. Wield her full wicked arsenal in your very hands and unleash its power straight into the snarling hordes’ ugly faces.


Metal: Hellsinger VR includes everything you’ve come to know and love in Metal: Hellsinger. That means the full award-winning soundtrack performed by your favorite metal legends, and the entire campaign to wreak vengeance upon the Red Judge all in glorious VR.

The game has been rebuilt to take full advantage of the strengths of VR, creating accurate and meaty gunplay, a world that pulsates to the beat, and doing away with most menus for an immersive hub area. Aim dual pistols independently, cock your shotgun, and make them fear the beat.


Whether you want to physically move around yourself, use the joystick, standing or even seated, Metal: Hellsinger VR will deliver delicious heavy metal carnage straight into your ears and eyes.

The game is coming to Steam in 2024.

Stay on beat, Hellsingers 🤘
