nDreams has announced that Reach will be launching on Meta Quest, PSVR 2, and Steam VR this October. Announced earlier this summer, Reach is an all-out action affair built to take advantage of the immersive nature of VR, following the likes of Synapse and Fracked.

What is Reach?

Reach sees players embody a reluctant hero thrown into a perilous journey to uncover the secrets of an underground civilization. nDreams are promising to deliver a lot of fancy-sounding bulletpoints: ‘full-body awareness and presence; deeply tactile interactions powered by advanced physics and intuitive; gesture-driven traversal’. But in reality, what does this actually mean?

Reach is undoubtedly an action-orientated affair. The hugely popular Synapse was a landmark title for many, delivering new standards in full-body simulation for fast-paced VR combat. Reach aims to push even further, and set a ‘new standard in VR immersion’. In the game, you must fight past mythical threats, master versatile tools, and forge a path through a world where every action directly impacts the adventure.

Reach Release Date

The official release date for Reach has been set as 16th October, 2025. nDreams has promised that more information on the game will be revealed in the coming weeks, but if you’re already sold the game is available to pre-order on the Meta Horizon Store and the PlayStation Store now. You can also wishlist on Steam.

“We’re thrilled to shine a spotlight on some of Reach’s most intricate gameplay mechanics in our latest trailer and open up pre-orders,” commented Glenn Brace, Head of Studio, nDreams Elevation. “The response from early previews has been incredible, and we can’t wait for players to experience firsthand the depth and VR-first innovation we’ve built into every aspect of the game.”
