Stress Level Zero is launching its virtual reality game Bonelab today as the latest entry in its experimental physics series.
The maker of the predecessor title Boneworks is back again with physics-first simulated gameplay and interaction. And one of the highlights of Bonelab is that you can mod it. The new title is debuting on Meta’s Meta Quest 2 headset and other PC VR headsets.
The company said the first section of the game provides a swift run-through of the basic concepts and combat before entering the main lab environment where the options open up. From the lab players can try a variety of different levels to play around in and explore. After playing at least three levels, players can solve a crane puzzle and then find a pathway to the third part of the game.
The final sequence of levels may take some time and will introduce a variety of newer concepts. After that, players can keep coming back to a physics sandbox, which has a plethora of unlockable objects.

The layered narrative of Bonelab falls right in line with that of Boneworks. Stress Level Zero may be familiar to early fans of VR, as it created Hover Junkers all the way back in 2016.
Boneworks originally came out in 2019. That title earned Steam’s Best of VR Platinum in 2019 and every year since.
The title represents the continued evolution of Stress Level Zero’s Marrow1 VR physics foundation, which was originally developed for Boneworks.
