Phantom: Covert Ops is a the stealth action VR title that immerses you in the role of an elite and deadly covert operative dispatched into remote, hostile wetlands in a military kayak.

Phantom: Covert Ops kicks off in 1991. In the wake of the Cold War, intelligence indicates a significant force consolidating at an inaccessible former Soviet naval facility off the coast of the Black Sea.

You are a Phantom: an elite and deadly covert operative with a single night to prevent all-out war. Dispatched into remote, hostile wetlands in your tactical kayak, utilise military-grade weapons and equipment to evade and neutralise the enemy threat. Immerse yourself in a gritty and authentic arena of war across an intense campaign in VR. Engage your targets lethally or infiltrate unnoticed from within the shadows: it’s your mission to execute your own way.

As the threat emerges from the shadows, it becomes clear you have a single night to prevent an attack that will create global repercussions.

The game encourages you to approach every enemy encounter in your own way across an explosive campaign of missions with diverse objectives. Feel like sneaking silently in the watery shadows whilst causing distractions to create a clear path through hostile territory? Go for it! Alternatively, ambush enemies head on by setting explosives and using the sniper rifle. It’s your mission to undertake as you see fit.


We have gone to huge lengths in Phantom: Covert Ops to make you feel every tense moment, from paddling silently through the water, to aiming down the scope of your sniper rifle. The thrill of becoming a Phantom operative hidden deep behind enemy lines is driven through 1:1 player movement and body awareness, delivering a new level of immersion.

“We have been developing VR games for more than five years, and Phantom: Covert Ops is the culmination of all that hard work and learning. I’m immensely proud of what the team has achieved, breaking new grounds in VR immersion to create a stealth action game built around 1:1 interactions, player choice, and an innovative and intuitive on-water movement mechanic,” said CEO/founder/mission commander Patrick O’Luanaigh

Key Features:

  • DEADLIER ON WATER: Freely traverse the water in your military kayak, across rich, flooded environments.  Experience innovative and tactile on-water VR traversal using your paddle to stealthily move and steer through hostile locations.
  • BECOME A PHANTOM: Experience the tension and thrill of becoming a lethal military asset in VR. From dragging your paddle through the water to aiming down the scope of your rifle, everything is driven through 1:1 player movement and body awareness, delivering a new level of immersion.
  • STEALTH ACTION: How you plan and execute every mission and encounter is your choice. Move silently across the water, sneaking through reeds and beneath enemy walkways, or ambush hostiles in exhilarating combat.

Phantom: Covert Ops will be coming to Oculus Quest and Oculus Rift platforms later this year.
