WOOOOW. I bought lone echo 2 back in 2022 for the Vega chassis in ECHO VR, never played it but after nearly 5 years of having ECHO VR I decided I’d finally try lone echo. This game was so visually stunning and beautiful. And the mechanics of the game were insane. The story is so crazy aswell like what do you mean a mysterious ship from 400 years in the future just randomly appears right outside Saturn? Only flaw is that the game doesn’t feel long enough, I feel like I finished the game to quick. Bouta play lone echo 2
Awsome experience. After Half Life Alyx I got this one recomended and WOW! Really worth the price awsome immersive experience, sort of like a scify move where you are the main character, felt awsome and touchy and nice, sometimes scary, sometimes thrilling, overall 10 out of 10, all round, good!
Absolutely brilliant! I'm just getting into VR gaming in 2025. I've played several current titles from the Meta Store, and it's mind-blowing that Lone Echo from 2017 outpaces all of them in quality, quantity, story, atmosphere and everything. I just completed my first playthrough and I'm immediately racing to buy the sequel. I'm coming, Captain Rhodes!
Better than Alyx. This and the second chapter are my favourite videogames ever on any platform.It's a shame Meta didn't want this gem to succeed and shut down the studio. Nobody knows about this masterpiece.
Wonderful space adventure! In a way this game is a tease! I was just starting to really become attached to its characters and the story, and then it ended! I sat slumped in my sadness as the credits rolled. The journey was great and certainly left me wanting for more. It deserves a lot more breadth and feels like it leaves several questions unanswered. I was fascinated by the views, and the concept, and the various ways the VR made me feel as I learned to navigate zero-G and get used to looking into vast areas, or areas that made me stomach tingle or take my breath away (I literally gasp!) as I floated in open space! Artful sci-fi tech designs that feel complex (but is actually pretty straightforward once you realize what somethings intention is).
The detail they put into Captian Rhodes face is mind-blowing, it's such a strange feeling to look at a bunch of pixels on a headset screen yet still feel like it has a "life" to it! When she looks right at you, it's so uncanny, and not creepy at all, like androids can be, or other VR games where the humans feel more plastic-y. Just amazing!
So, yes, all very cool! Just wish it took longer than ~10 hours to complete and I could experience more of the story!! Worth picking up for what you do get! Don't rush through it, take it all in, and enjoy it. :)
10 stars or more. Ok, so this is how a game is made. This is how the graphics are made. This is how the game mechanics has to work. Best VR game ever, period.
You play the role of an android nicknamed "Jack" who is working on a mining station near Saturn with a human crew called Olivia. They are preparing to say goodbye to each other since Jack is prepared to run the station alone and Olivia will be sent on another project. But fate has other plans: an anomaly appears and knocks out their equipments. They start fixing the equipment before investigating the anomaly. They finish with everything, when all of a sudden...
Seriously guys and girls, must buy, must have. If there would be a normal PC version, I would buy it. If there would be a movie, I would buy ticket for it.
fabulous. A "must have" game. Who needs subtitles with translation will need two programs: github(dot)com/NtsFranz/LoneEchoSubtitles and github(dot)com/Danily07/Translumo First, you need to launch LoneEchoSubtitles and specify the path to the game folder in the window. Then launch the game. After that, the path to the folder in the LoneEchoSubtitles window will change from red to green. Open the Transluma translator. Customize the translation, appearance, transparency of the window, the recognition method and the size of the translation window. Then, with the Alt+Q hotkey, select a part of the program window where the subtitles are, Transluma will capture the screen in this area. Tilda enables and disables translation. For convenience, you can enable windowed display mode instead of fullscreen in the game settings. Next, in the oculus dashboard, we place and attach the Transluma window in a convenient place, in the Settings>Experiments>Hiding panel controls move the slider to disable the lower opaque part of the window. When switching from dash to the game, the black color will become transparent. Only the letters with the translation will remain.

This has aged so well, still few equals. Coming to this mearly 7 years after its release (but having been using VR for a few years now), it's a shock how few VR games have equalled the way Lone Echo makes the most natural use of motion controls and gameplay mechanics to suit the game's setting.
The story is good and well paced. You can get yourself lost in space station busy-work if you want, but if you stick to the main story objectives then the game regularly adds new mechanics, new things in the environment, new environments or new challenges. It never felt repetitive and there is no grind.
All that said, not everybody will be able to play this game. It defaults to snap turn (which I turned off, once I though to go see if I could) but smooth movement is the only movement there is. Shame if that makes it unplayable for you, but It's essential to the game; adding teleportation to it would be like adding teleporation to a flight sim.
AAA title! One of the best! 1/4th Off! The story in this game is great, and the zero gravity immersion is quite the experience when playing as Jack! This is a must experience for a lot of VR users, definitely give it a try!
