Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond is a VR game.

Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond will launch in holidays with single-player and multiplayer VR

Respawn Entertainment unveiled the latest gameplay of Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond, a big-budget virtual reality game coming from the folks who created the original Medal of Honor. This World War II shooter will have multiplayer action, the developer revealed for the first time at Gamescom’s opening ceremonies today.

Respawn CEO Vince Zampella introduced the latest gameplay trailer. It is coming at an unspecified date during the holiday season of 2020 on the Oculus Rift and Oculus Rift S VR headsets. I was a little worried about this game, as I played it in September but hadn’t heard anything about it since. I’m delighted it’s coming soon.
