Just over a year after its initial launch, XREAL Games has brought its explosive action shooter to Steam with Zero Caliber 2 Remastered. This new, upgraded version gives PC players a chance to experience one of VR’s most cinematic military adventures in full, high-resolution glory. After spending some time with this upgraded release, I’m impressed while also being reminded of just how solid the original Quest version still is.

For those unfamiliar, Zero Caliber 2 is a narrative-driven military shooter set in a dystopian ‘not too distant future.’ While the story gives the action some grounding, it favors spectacle over plot. Zero Caliber 2’s focus has always been on big-budget firefights, explosive set pieces, and moment-to-moment intensity - and that remains true here. My Quest review praised the game for delivering some hugely cinematic set pieces with grand-scale explosions and pitched battles aplenty, and that still holds up brilliantly on PC.
