A sequel to one of the most popular fitness-meets-sports games in VR is on the way, as Thrill of the Fight 2 has been confirmed, alongside an early access date of November 21, 2024. Thrill of the Fight 2 is coming to one of the best VR headsets on the market, the Meta Quest 3, and older Meta headsets like the Pro and the Quest 2.

Graphics and Multiplayer Features

The above announcement trailer shows that the in-game graphics have been given a considerable upgrade in the new game, with more detail available in both fighter models and the environments. Online multiplayer play will consist of skill-based matchmaking and direct challenges, so you can go up against friends to settle arguments without anyone getting a black eye.

Immersive Experience and Future Updates

While developer Halfbrick Studios boasts that Thrill of the Fight 2 is a highly immersive title, it will be exciting to see if any mixed reality features make their way into the game. It's notable that the trailer suggests multiplayer early access begins on November 21, 2024, which may indicate that the core single-player experience is being kept under wraps until the full release.

• If you want to follow the development closely, you can head to the Thrill of the Fight 2 discord.
• It appears that the X page is currently suspended, so Discord remains the best source for the latest updates.
• If you've been subscribed to Meta Quest+, Thrill of the Fight was part of the service a few months ago, meaning you may already have a copy and can try it before the sequel arrives.

As for Thrill of the Fight 2, it hopes to earn a place on the best Meta Quest 3 games guide post-release.
