Description
RailBlaster puts you on a winding rail ride with a blaster in your hands, one in each hand in VR. The track twists, climbs and drops through ten worlds that light up, pulse and rumble with the music, while targets fill the sky around you. Chain hits for combos up to x5, slow the world with slo-mo, and chase a better grade on every run.
A short story opens each level and carries you from a dead neon city into the Abyss, down to a burning pit and up into orbit. Two acts end with two bosses. Beat the campaign to open four Lost Worlds, some over an hour long, five Mixed Worlds that splice themes together, and ten mirror tracks: 27 tracks in all.
