To protect your own race and your own planet, load your weapons and go destroy the dark legion!
Review: Dark Legion VR is a fantastic looking shooter that also packs a punch when it comes to weapons and enemy design. In fact, I would go so far to say that it reminds me of a poor mans Farpoint! A lot of time and thought has gone into this game and it shows in both graphics and game ideas. Sadly it also has some terrible flaws that stop this game being something very special indeed. The poor gun selection system is just annoying as is the reload mechanics, but it is the teleport movement system that really grates the most. It seems to take forever to get anywhere and would have been a much better game with full motion.
So is that game worth a download? Absolutely. But maybe after a few updates, or buy it now to support those possible future updates. I really do believe with just a few bugs sorted out and the movement control system changed this game will indeed be something extra special and when it does I would expect the price to rocket, so maybe consider buying it now just to own it in order to get a much better game later.
