The VR title preserves core tower-defense gameplay while introducing first-person combat, allowing players to physically wield weapons to fend off orcs.

The Quest 3/3S version is currently available, with the Quest 2 release still forthcoming.

Players can experience both a standard solo campaign and a two-player co-op mode.

Orcs Must Die! By The Blade is a VR reimagining of the Orcs Must Die! series, now available on Quest 3 and Quest 3S, developed by Teravision Games.

The main campaign spans 12 missions across three chapters, featuring trap placement and weapon-based combat with free locomotion.

Teravision Games co-founder Luis Daniel Zambrano stated the focus was on combat feel and immersion to make VR feel more present and exciting.

The title was initially planned for a January 22 release but was delayed due to a Quest 2 performance issue, with the Quest 2 version still in development for a later release.

Progression comes from upgrading both weapons and traps to strengthen defenses against the orc threat.
