Metal Hellsinger VR takes an interesting approach of mixing a rhythm game with Doom like paced gameplay. It does this by making you shoot enemies to the beat of the music. Which works well in Virtual Reality, with the whole full freedom of movement offered by turning physically in your play-space and the feeling of having weapons in your own hands.

You will be killing to the beat over eight different levels and taking on a mix of standard enemies, larger enemies and bosses, as aforementioned you will be shooting and slashing to the beats. Actually carrying it out to the beats will do more damage, charge a special shot and also give you a score multiplier, with the multiplier adding the songs vocals when it hits a set level. With how it works and when you get the hang of it, it’s easy to keep the multiplier up and charge those special shots – however getting used to killing to beat might take some practice at first, but don’t let this put you off at the start.

As you would expect from the game, the tracks you will slaying all these Hell demons too is metal music, with the games original soundtrack including eight tracks with vocals from the likes of Tatiana from Jinger, Matt from Trivium, Randy from Lamb of God and others. All the songs really get your adrenaline pumping when mixed with the gameplay. You will get a total of eight weapons to mix it up but, you will find your favorites and likely stick to those – I found myself sticking to using a mix of Persephone (shot gun) and The Hounds (dual pistols) and another fun one is Telos (Bow). You will find that each level will be around fifteen to twenty minutes long each, meaning it will feel you get through the game quite quickly. But, the idea of the game is going back in and play the levels again and again, get better scores and maybe try and get stylish with your kills.
