'Survivorman VR: The Descent' Gets PS VR2 And PCVR February Release Date - Trailer

Survivorman VR: The Descent is a reality-based survival simulator that teaches you to brave the harrowing wilderness after surviving a helicopter crash in the Arctic mountains.

Survivorman VR: The Descent is a one-of-a-kind survival simulator that is as true to reality as can be, based on decades of survival knowledge and experience brought to you by Les Stroud — who provides decades of personal experience, expertise, and knowledge to ensure this VR adventure is as true to real life as possible… minus the frostbite.

Navigate glacial crevasses, construct hunting traps, and most importantly, keep the fire burning! With Les Stroud by your side, you will have access to a wealth of knowledge based on more than 30 years of survival experience… but in the end it’s up to you to make the right decisions that will determine whether you will live or die.

After narrowly avoiding catastrophe in a fiery helicopter crash, players will need to use all their wits to not only survive extreme environments but descend an imposing mountain to the point where they can be rescued. Utilizing their toolbox of skills and whatever items they can scavenge to complete challenges, players must navigate glacial crevasses, construct hunting traps, and most importantly, keep the fire burning!


Following a launch on Meta Quest headsets, the PlayStation VR2 and Steam versions will arrive with significantly improved graphics.

A significant update to the Quest version featuring new content is scheduled to hit the Quest Store simultaneously with the PS VR2 launch.

Key Features

  • Shiveringly Realistic: The PS VR2 and Steam versions of Survivorman VR: The Descent feature significantly improved graphics following the Meta Quest release
  • Learn Real, Applicable Skills from a True Expert: Few people can compete with Les when it comes to real-world survival experience, and he’ll be your guide throughout this harrowing scenario!
  • Training in a Safe Environment: The power of VR will bring you as close as you can get to a blistering mountaintop from the safety of your living room — a perfect off-season practice routine for those interested in the extremes of human experience.
  • Keep Warm, Keep Eating, Avoid Catastrophe: Thanks to a handy wrist-mounted HUD, you’ll be able to track vitally important stats like body temperature, fatigue, and hunger.
  • No Monsters, No Guns: The natural world presents more terror and danger than any fiction. Test your skills against real-world threats like deadly snowstorms, freezing temperatures, and an environment not built for human beings.
  • Cutting Edge VR Tech: Les Stroud is brought to life using Cream’s patented proprietary technology Dynamic Digital Humans (DDH), created in partnership with Sheridan Screen Industries Research and Training Centre (SIRT), to produce

Currently available for Meta Quest 2 and Meta Quest 3, Survivorman VR: The Descent is coming to PSVR2 and PC VR (Steam) headsets on February 15, 2024.
