Into The Radius 2 Announces Early Access Release Date for Quest 3

So, let me just launch into this without any kind of neat introduction or whatever. You ever hear about Into the Radius 2? It’s this trippy survival shooter thing — like, really surreal, you know? — and it’s headed to Quest 3 and 3S later this month. Which is pretty exciting, if I might say so.

For those who haven’t been keeping up (and let’s be honest, who keeps up with everything these days?), Into the Radius 2 throws you into this bizarre and slightly unnerving place called the Pechorsk Security Zone. It’s a bit like an acid trip, but with guns and survival tactics. The Estonian folks over at CM Games actually kicked this off through Steam Early Access. Then in February — or was it March? Honestly, my memory’s a sieve sometimes — they said it’s also coming to Quest 3 and 3S. And boom, it’s landing on May 21. Write it down. Or don’t. Whatever suits.

But, oh wait, there’s a twist — isn’t there always? The Quest 3 version isn’t gonna be a carbon copy of the PC VR. Not initially, anyway. CM Games is working on it, they say, to bring more features in updates. Sounds hopeful, right? But don’t hold your breath for the Pechorsk Outskirts or Distortion Zones at launch. Plus, if you’re dreaming of cross-platform multiplayer, well, keep dreaming because it’s not a thing "at the moment.” Whatever that truly means.

Oh, and no luck for Quest 2 folks. CM Games basically said, “Nah, maybe next time.”

But hey, all isn’t lost. That recent ‘Ghost Town’ update — kind of a spooky name, don’t you think? — gave us a bunch of cool stuff. Customizable chest rigs? Check. Proximity voice chat in co-op? Check. Brand-new guns and attachments? Double check. And it’s all gonna be there when it drops.

So that’s the lowdown. Quirky, right? If you’re already in Early Access on Steam, sweet, but otherwise, pencil in May 21 for the Quest drop. Or forget and be surprised later. Either way works.
