Crunch Element is a tactical VR shooter where you breach, blast, and clear destructible compounds using explosive gadgets, high-powered weapons, and precision tactics. Play solo or co-op with up to 4 players. Plan your raid, choose your loadout, and enter enemy compounds where no wall is safe and every mission plays out in destructible environments . After nearly a year of rebuilding, Crunch Element has been fully reworked with new systems, enemies, and gear based on reviews and feedback. The foundation is set for continuous updates, new contracts, and new missions. The old version of the game has been moved to the “legacy” branch. To access it: Steam Library → Right-click Crunch Element → Properties → Betas → Select legacy from the dropdown. Core Features Destructible Environments Breach walls, blast doors, and reshape the battlefield. Gunfire, explosives, and even melee tools carve through enemy defenses. Tactical FPS Combat in VR Use realistic weapons and physics-driven interactions. Choose between loud and aggressive or quiet and stealthy. Co-op Multiplayer (1–4 Players) Join friends or go solo on contracts. Synchronize breaches, watch each other’s backs, or split up for multi-angle assaults. Contract-Based Mission System Play structured multi-stage missions with objectives, side contracts, and unlock rewards. Fight through fortified outposts, arctic labs, and underground bunkers controlled by a fanatical enemy faction. Smart Enemy AI Enemies investigate, coordinate, take cover, and call out threats.
