Following the announcements of the Meta Quest 3 and other games like Vampire: The Masquerade - Justice, the final reveal of yesterday's Meta Quest Gaming Showcase was Asgard's Wrath 2.

Once again developed by Sanzaru Games (known for the Sly Cooper franchise, they were acquired by Facebook three years ago to be a part of Oculus Studios), it is a direct sequel to 2019's acclaimed action game.

This mode, inspired by rogue-lite games, will test the player's ability to survive as long as possible in procedurally generated dungeons.

The mode also features asynchronous online multiplayer elements, allowing players to send their character to aid or hinder other players.

In the main campaign, the developers confirmed that the Cosmic Guardian will possess four mortal heroes, each one with their own powers and story. The first one is called Abraxas and he's seeking revenge against Sakhmet, the daughter of the sun god Ra. According to Sanzaru, Abraxas is a melee warrior, though he owns a handy boomerang axe that returns
