Gunjack 2: End of Shift

About

Gunjack 2: End of Shift is a VR shooter that drops you into the middle of a desperate battle on a space mining rig. You control turrets from a fixed position, blasting waves of pirates trying to destroy your base. The action is fast and repetitive but tense, with each wave ramping up the chaos. You’ll swap between guns, dodge debris, and rely on quick reflexes to survive. The setting is a gritty corner of space where survival matters more than strategy, and the focus stays squarely on the chaos of combat. The game leans heavily into VR’s potential for presence, making the claustrophobic rig feel immediate and the explosions visceral. While the story is thin, the sequel builds on the original’s strengths, which sold well in 2016. Community feedback highlights its straightforward fun and how it makes VR combat feel punchy, though some note the lack of depth beyond shooting. It’s a brief but intense experience that works best for short bursts, proving there’s still life in VR’s early experiments.

Storyline

Everyone fights in New Eden. Some fight for power. Others for money. But out here, on the fringes of space, most fight simply to see another day. Far from the comforts of civilization, the vast mining rig, Kubera, is your home. As a turret operator charged with destroying waves of attackers, you stand united with your crew mates in the defense of the rig. You are not a soldier, but a survivor, the scourge of would-be plunderers. With a formidable arsenal at your disposal, you will live the life of a Gunjack, protecting the Kubera, its precious cargo, and yourselves, from the bandits trying to blow the rig apart!
