Review: Just in case you are not a fan of winter Olympics a Biathlon is a winter sport that combines cross-country skiing and rifle shooting in the form of a race. As far as I know, this is the only VR Biathlon game made so far, but there might be others as this game is not bad at all and seems to fit perfectly with VR and indeed our motion controllers. With a small handful of tracks (3 in total) from several different countries, the game does at least try and mix things up visually and to be fair the graphics are good most the time. The skiing side of things is OK, if a little arcade-like in style, but it is the shooting that takes the most practice. I do think this game is worth the £7.19 asking price as I feel you need to play it lots to get used to the controls. OK, so it doesn’t have a tonne of content, but it should give you your money’s worth.
