GoldenEye 007, running natively on your Quest.

No PC, no streaming, no emulator. A from-source port of the N64 classic, rebuilt for virtual reality on top of the GoldenEye decompilation.

Bring your own game: you need a ROM of the USA cartridge you own. Why?

GoldenEye 007 VR on Quest: Multiplayer Is Here! (v0.1.18)

The video loads from YouTube when you press play.

02 · Two ways to play

Pick one at launch. Switch any time.

Stereo VR

True 3D first-person play. Look around with your head, lean around corners, and duck behind cover to hide from guards.

  • Aim with your real hand. Shots go where the barrel points, and a 3D sight shows where they'll land.
  • Hold any gun with both hands. Rifles aim along the line between your hands.
  • Swing either hand to fight up close: chop, punch, pistol-whip, stab or club. Sneak up on a guard and chop him.
  • Scopes magnify like the N64: the sniper from 4.4x to 25x in its lens, the Moonraker laser at 3x.
  • Your left arm is Bond's own sleeve. Raise your wrist to open the watch, or grip it with your gun hand to fire the watch laser.
  • Smooth or snap turning, and an optional comfort vignette.

Big virtual screen

The whole game on a cinema-sized screen floating in front of you, with no artificial motion at all.

  • Flat or curved, at any size and distance.
  • Grab the screen with both grips to carry it anywhere.
  • Hold the right stick click to jump into stereo VR, and back.
  • Menus, briefings and cutscenes play here in both modes.

Also in the box

In-VR launcher

Pick your ROM, display mode, screen, turning and comfort without taking the headset off. In the game's own menus, point and pull the trigger.

Smooth at 72, 90 or 120 Hz

The game runs at 60 frames a second. The frames in between are redrawn from your newest head and hand positions, so nothing doubles.

HD textures, if you want them

The Mods page installs GoldenEye 007 HD by intermissionfb and GhostlyDark, or our HD + AI fork that fills in guards and weapons. Hold Menu and press X to compare.

Gun fit

Move the gun on your hand with the sticks until the grip sits in your palm, in the headset, and keep it.

Updates in the headset

The launcher offers each new release, and the Mods page each new texture pack. No computer needed.

Left-handed, swap sticks, cheats

Swap hands or sticks in one tick. The classic cheats, tiny or big guns, and a switch to unlock every mission.

03 · Multiplayer Experimental

Online multiplayer, in VR

GoldenEye's multiplayer with every player in their own headset. Up to four of you on the classic multiplayer stages, each in stereo VR.

  • Host a match from the launcher. Friends on the same Wi-Fi see it in the list, or join by IP address.
  • Everyone picks a character and ticks Ready, then the host launches the match.
  • Everyone needs the same version of GoldenEye VR.

It's new, so expect rough edges and tell us what breaks. To play over the internet, the host forwards UDP port 27007 on their router.

Early release

The whole game boots, and the Dam has been played end to end in both modes. Other missions are playable but less tested, so expect rough edges. Online multiplayer is new and experimental.
