Echo Combat debuts on Thursday as the latest zero-gravity robot-fighting virtual reality game from Ready At Dawn Studios.

The Oculus Rift with Touch title is based on the gameplay of the Irvine, California-based studio’s previous Lone Echo and Echo Arena VR games, and this one has a fresh take on competitive gaming. While you throw a disc around to other players in Echo Arena, you can shoot at players in Echo Combat in zero g. The game has a shot to be a new esport in VR.
