The Elementalist VR
A downloadable elementalist for Windows and Android
Bend the elements to your will and defeat your foes! Enter a fantasy arena where you will face other contestants on your path to become the best elementalist.
The Elementalist VR is a multiplayer VR game where you will challenge other players in 1v1 duels. The spells are cast only by waving specific hand signs. The duel takes place in a dark arena where you can teleport between several pillars. Each pillar can be transformed into one of 4 elements:
- Fire - deadly but hurts you too
- Ice - fast but freezes you over time
- Storm - cancels other spells but might shock you
- Nature - healing but weak
What will be your strategy? Would your rather burn your enemy to ashes or snipe him from afar? Many other possibilities, choice is up to you!
How to play
You have 3 different levels you can play. Enter any of them by touching them with your hand/wand.
- Tutorial
We highly recommend finishing this before going competitive. It walks you through all the basic mechanics the game has to offer. You can leave any time by pressing the A Button on Oculus Rift/Quest or the Home Button on HTC Vive.
- Practice
In this level you can practice any spells on a dummy. There are also animations around you that summarise the hand gestures and spells effects. You can leave any time by pressing the A Button on Oculus Rift/Quest or the Home Button on HTC Vive.
- Competitive
Joins a room where you wait for another player. When you are both ready, the duel starts. The first one to loose 5 health points looses.
Final Notes
The game is in early development, so there are no leaderboards, you play for fun for now :-)
There is no way to leave Competitive once you join the room (except shutting down the whole game).
We are cross-platform! Play on Oculus Rift, HTC Vive (both Windows only) and Oculus Quest.

Really fun game however the controls are very hard to get used to. friend and I played together, (we would love a direct match up, so we wouldn't need to surf through randos) it feels like often you try to do one spell and another one gets cast ie fire > teleport.
Thank you for the feedback! The spell recognition is definitely something we hope to improve in the near future. Also, the direct matches are an essential feature that is to be added.
Awesome! it has a very fun premise and I am excited to follow any updates that are released. is there a social media page, or discord server for this game?
Currently, the game is in very early stages of development, so we did not go as far as creating a social media page or a discord server. However, we plan to release a playable Beta version for Game Access in Brno, which will take place in October.
