This week, we released a bunch of titles and updates across the Quest and Rift Platforms. Here’s a rundown of the highlights:
MOTHERGUNSHIP: FORGE
Craft. Shoot. Die. Repeat! Forge absurdly powerful guns and fight through the belly of a metal alien monstrosity in MOTHERGUNSHIP: FORGE, a frantic FPS roguelite. Survive against the MOTHERGUNSHIP’s metal minions and earn gun parts to add to your weapon, easily picking them up and snapping them into place in VR. You’ll choose from a wild array of distinct gun parts and upgrades like chainguns, railguns, and pizza launchers (yes, explosive pizzas) to forge hell-ish combinations. Design your weapon, then destroy the MOTHERGUNSHIP fleet as alien machines, explosive traps, metal pests, and deadly bosses do everything they can to blast you and your weapon back to square one.
Perfect For: Fans of Vox Machinae, World of Mechs, and After the Fall
Developer: Terrible Posture Games
Available On: Quest 2

Demeo – Curse of the Serpent God
Brave adventurers, the land of Demeo needs you once again. You’ve had a few months to rest up and recover your hit points in Heroes’ Hangout, but this week Resolution Games launched its fourth Demeo campaign, Curse of the Serpent Lord. Hope you packed your Sunscreen +2, because you’ll be heading deep into the Ronth Desert. Can your band of adventurers break the curse that’s turned peaceful townspeople into reptilian monsters? Curse of the Serpent Lord also introduces Oana the Warlock, a powerful spellcaster—and reworks Zedokar the Sorcerer, Demeo’s original magic wielder, equipping him with some exciting new spells. Best of all? It’s free to all Demeo owners, so gather your party and venture forth.
