About this game

🔥 SEE WHAT META QUEST 3 CAN REALLY DO 🔥

GRAB. SCAN. HACK. FLY. FIGHT.

🏆 D.I.C.E.: Immersive Reality Game of the Year + Immersive Reality Technical Achievement

In Red Matter 2, your controllers become sci-fi multi-tools. Grab, scan, translate, hack, light the dark, fight, and fly across low-gravity worlds.

Nearly everything that looks interactive actually is. No floating HUD. No “press X to interact.” Your tools, controls, and inventory belong to the world.

Follow a lost friend’s distress signal across a dystopian solar system. As Agent Sasha Riss, infiltrate Volgravian facilities and uncover the reality-bending conspiracy behind the Red Matter.

TOOLS THAT EXIST INSIDE THE WORLD

  • 🦾 Grab & manipulate: Operate machinery, reroute power, and solve physical puzzles.
  • 🔎 Scan & translate: Examine objects for clues and translations.
  • 🔌 Hack systems: Breach security and open new paths.
  • 🔦 Light the unknown: Use your flashlight or fire flares.
  • ⚡ Adapt your arsenal: Transform your tool for puzzles and combat.
  • 🚀 Master the jetpack: Cross low-gravity chasms and alien landscapes.

OPTIMIZED FOR META QUEST 3

Experience higher-resolution rendering, dynamic shadows, and enhanced textures—from intricate machinery to Saturn’s rings.

*New to the series? No previous experience with the original Red Matter is required.*

Answer the signal. Operate the impossible. Face the Red Matter.

Great game!

If you find games like this tedious and boring, that's understandable. But not all of us want to play games where the main objective is to kill everything in sight. To each their own, but if that's the entire premise of your 1-star review, then you're likely hating the genre, not the game…

Way better than red matter 1

I played red matter 1 and I didn't always enjoy the puzzles tbh, but red matter 2 is way better in every way. Graphics and story and puzzles are way better. I enjoyed the game and thr pace of it too. Nice 👌 For people saying there is no action you obviously don't know anything about the…

What VR should be!

This game was absolutely amazing. Probably one of the best VR games I’ve played, definitely in the top five. The story was intriguing and had elements of mystery and horror. The puzzles were the right level of challenging. The graphics were out of this world. This game was amazing.
