What was the other one? i am not really following any kind of PvP shooters, but I wasn't aware zero-g ones was a thing.

Or is trying to be a thing, apparently...

There was a VR sports game on Quest that was really popular where you threw discs at a goal. Forgot what it was called.

It sounds like you are talking about echo arena VR but that was purely a meta decision if not just andrew bosworth's idea to shut down the game for only having around 10k concurrent players wich is huge for a pvp VR game.

Wow really? There is so much competition that there are non-VR games that would dream about 10k concurrent players. That's crazy.

That was what i heard but i just looked more into it and it's 10 thousand monthly players with 1000 concurrent players wich is still really good! Gorilla tag is at 1300 concurrent players on steam right now. There might be 10x that on the quest platform. Meta didn't like that their game wasn't as successful as the monke game.
