Fast Travel Games to Publish Guardians Frontline, A Sci-Fi Strategic VR Shooter

Fast Travel Games today announced a publishing deal with VirtualAge Games for Guardians Frontline, a strategic VR shooter set in a sci-fi setting. Featuring powerful weapons, structural crafting, and an in-game map editor, Guardians Frontline allows players to take on the role of both soldier and commander. Originally released as Guardians on Oculus App Lab, Guardians Frontline will launch for Meta Quest 2 and SteamVR in early 2023.

In Guardians Frontline, players must defend the federation from an enemy onslaught as they attempt to extract a mysterious energy source. Battlefields can be strategically secured with a blend of brain and brawn, including tactfully spawned buildings, mechs, spaceships, heavy weapons, and more. The game can be enjoyed solo in single-player mode, four-player co-op, or with up to eight friends in PvP.
"We've long enjoyed famed games like Halo and Starcraft, which have undeniably influenced us as we develop Guardians Frontline," said Carles Ballabriga at VirtualAge Games. "Our talented friends at Fast Travel Games are known in the VR space for their engaging lineup of titles and are the perfect publishing partner to ensure our game reaches the right audiences."

"Guardians Frontline caught our attention immediately. It's a fresh take on the action/shooter VR genre with a great mix of beloved mechanics and impressively big scope," said Patrick Liu, Head of Publishing at Fast Travel Games. "VirtualAge has made a rare blend of shooter and tactics that works very well, making it a game worth replaying time and again for the varying end results."

While Guardians Frontline will launch with a set of battle-ready maps, players can utilize the comprehensive in-game level editor tool to craft unique maps that the whole community can enjoy. Community maps are free to download, encouraging players to test their skills and strategies across nearly infinite landscapes.

More information and assets for Guardians Frontline can be found on the official website and on Steam. Follow the game at @GuardiansFL on Twitter & TikTok, and @GuardiansFrontline on Facebook & Instagram for the latest updates.

The best thing about VR is the immersion you get even with lowerend graphics. Any picture shown for something VR does not do it justice. I'm pretty excited about this game. The developer for this game releases updates all the time. It's great to see Fast travel publishing this game. Imagine Star Ship Troopers in VR. VR and AR are about to take off with the number of big companies jumping in. Also, fill out your spec buddy.

That's all fair. I actually am going to add this to my wishlist, cause I do want to get into VR soon. I can't wait much longer. Half Life Alyx... I want it so bad.

I don't have any specs right now, only intel hd graphics for about a six months now on my work laptop lol

I will update them when my next build gets built... assuming I can get my hands on a RDNA3 card.

Awesome! Good luck on the RDNA3. I think we are all in the same boat after the 4XXX price announcement. I know I'll be looking at RDNA3 as well. Also, Alyx is fantastic! It's even worth getting Alyx just for the Mods. I can say without a doubt that Alyx is the best game I have ever played. It's looks so real that when I took off my Rift S I was like how do I walk.. lol It took me a minute. I really hope we get another HL game with the Deckard when every they announce it.
