After the announcement of Space Pirate Arena, it’s the turn of a new arena game for Oculus Quest that was announced by Blasters of the Universe developer, Secret Location, during the Upload VR Showcase.

“NERF Ultimate Championship marks an important milestone for us as this is our first collaboration with our new parent company Hasbro,” said Kathryn Rawson, vice president of content at Secret Location, in a statement. “Everyone on the team is excited to bring these epic Nerf battles from our childhood to the immersive world of VR and to the growing audience for Oculus Quest when the game launches next year. “

Principle of the game

More than twenty years after the release of Nerf Arena Blast on PC, and the 2018 launch of an augmented reality game on smartphones for its Nerf Laser Ops Pro blasters, Hasbro has just announced that it is preparing Nerf Ultimate Championship to play in virtual reality.

The very short teaser of the game allows some guesses about the content of the game. First and foremost, Nerf Ultimate Championship will be a multiplayer shooter in which players will wield real models of Nerf in arena battles.

Fans will be able to cheer you on as you go head to head in team matches. Games are designed to be fast.

• Match by 4v4 team

• Compatible with Nerf Ultrablaster 5, theUltra 3, the MegaTri-station wagon and especially the Nerf Ultra One.

• Quick game due to the number of darts available per weapon (3 to 25).

Real Nerf Dart Guns for VR Play

Hasbro didn’t specify how live-action shots were going to be integrated into VR. We can imagine an option simply exploiting the tracking of hands from the Quest. But, for me, the most likely are adapters to place the Oculus controllers on the various Nerf guns. Unless, new mini sensors to clip or glue on the weapons.

Nerf Ultra One

For me the best of Nerves currently with its hellish look inspired by prohibition machine guns. It can be used with one or two hands for better precision.

But above all it is the most complete with its charger 25 Nerf Ultra darts and a shooting range jup to 36 meters.

However, it is also the most expensive of the current models with a official price of 54 $.

The Nerf Ultra 3

It allows shooting from a distance with precision up to 36 meters thanks to Nerf Ultra Blasters bullets.

The rifle pneumatic is held with two hands and embeds 8 bullets with a pump-shotgun reloading. It has an internal clip for 8 balls and a place to store them.

To my knowledge, this model is not available in France. In the US it can be found at Walmart around $ 40.

The Nerf Mega Tri-break

Another weapon seen in the teaser is the Nerf Mega one-handed pistol. A version ultra compact that shoots up to 20 meters. It has a 3 dart magazine Mega.

Its price is the lowest of the weapons currently visible in the trailer, it is sold less than 20 $. However, it requires special Mega darts, unlike the other three models which all use Nerf Ultra.

Nerf Ultra blaster Five

Like the Ultra 3 and Ultra One, the Blaster Five shoots up to 36 meters. But, it only embeds 4 Ultra darts. It does, however, have space to store 4 more Nerf Ultra darts. It has the advantage of being light and handy.

Like the Mega, we will appreciate its reasonable price of $ 29.99.

Note that you can order 20 additional official Nerf Ultra darts for $ 8.99.

Nerf Ultimate Championship VR release date

This particularly innovative and original new game is announced on Oculus Quest during 2022.

Nerf Ultimate Championship VR First Review

The announcement of the Oculus V30 software update with a play area of ​​up to 225 m2 brings a whole new dimension to virtual reality games. Hasbro should therefore quickly provide more information on this great innovation which will allow the use of real blasters as a game weapon in VR.

It remains to confirm the number of players in arena mode and the compatible Nerf models, because a new model should be released for the occasion.

To follow the news of the game, I invite you to join the dedicated Facebook group.
