Unlike other MMORPGs, OrbusVR will not require a monthly subscription to play. Additionally, the developers indicated that there will be no paid content or loot boxes in the game. The title will offer you a single-player experience through a campaign of approximately 20 hours. On the other hand, in OrbusVR there will be multiplayer content for groups of up to 5 warriors.

As in other games of the genre, you will have to complete various missions, face hordes of enemies and organize with other players to destroy powerful bosses. Here is an OrbusVR trailer

The studio promised future expansions with more content, quests, and dungeons to explore. The game will feature a voice chat, an interesting universe, as well as continuous updates to improve the game experience in virtual reality. At the moment, character classes such as Runemage, Ranger, Musketeer, and Warrior are contemplated. Each will have different abilities and will specialize in a unique combat style.

On the other hand, not everything will be fighting on OrbusVR. You can also become an expert in various disciplines, such as alchemy and fishing, that will help you in your main adventure. As if that were not enough, you can visit stores to acquire useful objects or improve your equipment.
