Brazen Blaze, a melee-focused 3v3 VR multiplayer brawler, is now free-to-play on Quest on Steam.
Initially released almost a year ago, Brazen Blaze is a competitive VR action game with destructible environments that’s inspired by Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. To celebrate its first anniversary this week, developer MyDearest announced it’s now switching from a paid game to a free-to-play structure, following similar moves we’ve seen this year from Ilysia and Mannequin.
While Brazen Blaze is now free-to-play on Quest, this change didn’t initially go live on Steam. MyDearest informed UploadVR that this will take slightly longer on Steam due to platform-side requirements, but it’s since gone live hours after receiving that response.
Anyone who bought the game before now will receive exclusive cosmetics and 2000 ‘Brazen Gold,’ the in-game currency. Brazen Blaze has used a premium Battle Pass system since last year’s release, and it’s seen continual post-launch seasonal updates with new characters, modes, and more.
We praised the VR PvP brawler in our Brazen Blaze review last year, believing it “nails the fundamentals” for a VR PvP brawler while highlighting concerns about its content strategy.
The game’s controls work well and it really feels like they’ve nailed that “easy to learn, hard to master” balance from the onset. From a strict gameplay standpoint, it would be incredibly easy to recommend Brazen Blaze, yet a few core issues hold things back.
Brazen Blaze is now free-to-play on the Meta Quest platform and Steam.
