Description

That is, until you uncover something greater: a legendary artifact holding a legacy from the past. Use immersive VR mechanics to steal, evade, and outsmart the forces controlling The City. Unravel its darkest secrets and expose a sinister conspiracy that looms over its very foundation.

If you've been waiting 11 years for a triumphant return of the Thief franchise, prepare to be severely let down. Rather than a return to the series' roots, Thief VR feels much more like a continuation of the widely disliked 2014 reboot.

Visually, the game is a mess. The graphics are noticeably poor, and it is painfully obvious that this is just a direct Meta Quest port without any meaningful visual upgrades. The narrative doesn't fare much better; both the story and the characters are completely uninteresting. The audio design is particularly frustrating—the voice acting is grating right from the start, and it only gets worse as the guards constantly repeat the exact same voice lines on an endless loop.

As a stealth game, the gameplay completely falls flat. The AI is incredibly dumb and barely reacts to anything you do, removing any sense of challenge or tension. Several gameplay mechanics, like calling the bird or putting out fires, feel completely underutilized and ultimately make no sense in the grand scheme of the game. To top it all off, the climax is incredibly anti-climactic: the final boss is an absolute joke that is over in about 30 seconds. The bow also feels incredibly horrible and you don't really use it how you should... The game, when I played it was riddled with bugs and the voice recognition system is a simple gimmick that will become boring very quickly... Save your money on this one and use it on games that actually deserve it.
  • You can pet the magpie
  • Worst bow I have ever used in a VR game
  • Uninteresting Story and Characters
  • Lazy port from the Quest
