Tally-ho VR friends, welcome to Gambit!
We're glad to see you here!
Where to start... well, first of all we'd like to thank everyone in the VR community for the overwhelming support and positivity that we received over the years. Gambit! is our 3rd PCVR title, and the release couldn't be less stressful haha.
We wanted to create a whole new and different world from scratch, and a light-hearted solo/co-op campaign full of laughter, guns and rock and roll to accompany it. Our Gambit! team poured their heart and soul into the game to make that happen, it became a true passion project. <3
Before we get too sentimental though, let's see what the game has to offer!
# RELEASE CONTENT
## SOLO/CO-OP CAMPAIGN
Gambit!'s backbone is its story mode - this is where you meet and get to know our protagonists, Frank, Cody, Udo & Kevin, 4 close-knit mercenaries trying to get rich, or die trying. Their relationship is the epitome of a bromance - prepare for endless quirky banter peppered with the finest and crudest humor out there!
You are free to choose any of the 4 characters (each with a unique special weapon!) - the rest will accompany you on the BIG journey in the form of your friends, VR strangers or AI, as the campaign can be fully played solo or in Co-op (up to 4 players)! Quick, tell your friends and family!
The campaign is full of very well hidden areas with hidden mini games, unlockable weapons, attachments, skins and other collectibles, Easter eggs and objectives that are all rewarded with unlockables. No hand-holding though, you'll have to REALLY look for the good stuff!
## MUNICIPAL MAYHEM™
Ah, the good old Municipal Mayhem™... a matchmaking-based free4all PvP game mode, where the last player standing wins. 1 match, 1 life. Very fast-paced action, quick in and out, and loads of points to be grabbed to unlock new arenas, masks, charms, weapon upgrades, skins & more! Show us how high you can climb on the tournament ladder!
## PVP
A classic 4-player free4all deathmatch we all love, mindless action against friends/strangers, no strings attached.
## HUB AREA AND THE ARMORY
Don't forget to explore the starting area as well - who knows what secrets you may find? ;)
Make sure to visit the armory often (to the left from the mission board), everything you unlock along the way will pop up in there, and so do unlockable masks and charms (right side of the corridor on your way to the armory).
# CLOSE-TO-RELEASE CONTENT
Gambit!'s release is only the 1st step - we'll very soon be back with content updates! You can expect weapon packs with crazy designs, and the Consumer Cleanup™ game mode, Gambit!'s zombie mode with a one-of-a-kind twist (and a completely new campaign narrative that will double the game’s playtime).
Stay tuned!
# RELEASE ISSUES
No release is perfect, and this one is no exception - we have discovered an issue last last last minute that may rarely cause crashes in Co-op, or Co-op related features (like invites). :(
We didn't want to delay the game again, so please bear with us while we panic and release a patch next week.
In the meantime, please report EVERYTHING you find regarding this, or any other technical issue in this thread: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1736120/discussions/2/3818530649093093323/
