Sometimes Witchcraft clearly makes it way into game development, and this is the only thing that could possibly explain what Red Matter 2 achieved on every platform. Please don't curse us and just take our Technical Achievement Award. Congratulations @Vertical_Robot

The Meta Quest 3 is here and reviewers are loving Red Matter 2 on the new device! 🎮 Dive into a snippet of the stellar comments from press outlets across the cosmos! 🌌👽 #Quest3 #MetaQuest3 "It felt almost indistinguishable from a PC VR game" - @engadget "But games like Red Matter 2 and the updated Pistol Whip, which are ready for the resolution bump, generally look fantastic. I’ve never had so much fun just wandering around in VR than I have with the Quest 3." - @verge "Red Matter 2 is a testament to what developers can do with the more powerful hardware" - @IGN "Most games I tried didn’t look or run noticeably better on the more powerful headset, with one exception: Red Matter 2. It already looked great on the Quest 2, and with its Quest 3 update it approaches the quality of PC VR games like Half-Life: Alyx." - @Polygon "When you step into this for the first time in Quest 3 you cannot help but be completely blown away by the fidelity of this game. It really does look like high-end PCVR." - @GAMERTAGVR "But the real highlight for me is Red Matter 2. It was always a great looking game but now it has higher resolution textures and better lighting with dynamic shadows making it a must play title if you are picking up a Quest 3." - @vr_oasis "Some developers, such as Red Matter 2 studio Vertical Robot, have already taken advantage of the power boost, rolling out updates that deliver 4K textures, advanced filtering and shadows, and improved resolution. It makes going back to the same game on the Quest 2 feel like downgrading from PS5 to PS3." - @WIRED "The overall impression is particularly noticeable in elaborate VR games such as Red Matter 2, where the graphics are sometimes pushed to ultra-realism" - @MIXED_en "Red Matter 2 boosts its graphics even further, looking as good as a PlayStation VR 2 game" - @CNET "Red Matter 2 is one of the best games you can use to demonstrate the difference between Quest 2 and 3. The first thing I noticed was the massive improvement in texture resolution. The quality feels straight out of a PSVR 2 game and not something running on a mobile chipset." - @androidcentral
