Bag your limit in a one-of-a-kind VR experience! From one of the designers of the best-selling Deer Hunter and Bird Hunter series of the past comes a thrilling new hunting game, designed and developed from the beginning to be played in VR!
The Hunt Deep in the immersion of virtual reality, keep your eyes peeled for doves and your shotgun at the ready. But be sure that your target is a dove and not a crow or songbird or you’ll have to pay a fine for breaking the game laws!
Earn money for each dove that you bag and spend your earnings to buy new guns or “power ups” for a day (such as highlighting downed birds to make them easier to see). Choose your shotgun from a wide assortment of pump-action, semi-auto, side-by-side and over-under (in 12ga, 20ga, and .410).
Bag rare banded birds and see the location where they were banded and the age of the bird on special certificates in your farmhouse. Can you collect all of the 40+ band locations? Other, even more rare, birds await you in the field as well!
Your Hunting Land Explore as you hunt your choice of private 550 acre hunting lands in Texas and Arizona. Your dove hunting paradise contains sunflower fields, hay fields, high desert wilds, stock tanks and more. You hunt with a full 24 hour day-night cycle, so you can use your headlamp to get to your hunting spot before sunrise or find that bird that you downed just before shooting hours closed at sunset.
The realistic dove AI means that you are much more likely to find doves feeding in the early morning and evening, roosting through the midday, and sipping water and picking up some gravel in late mornings and early afternoons. You'll find both White-winged and Mourning Doves during your hunts!
Doves can follow different patterns on different days, meaning that spot where you bagged your limit on a previous day may not be nearly as busy the next time you hunt. It is important to know where, and when, feeding and watering areas are…and where the birds roost, as you may kick some birds out of their roost by walking through!
Hunt Your Way Hunting Life VR: Dove Season allows you customize your hunting experience to be what you want it to be. Do you want a realistic hunting experience with just a few doves that can spot you if you’re not in cover? Go for it! Or maybe you prefer tons of doves with no non-game birds? We’ve got you covered! Want to forget about game laws and just go out and have fun bagging birds with no limits? You can do that too!
For an added challenge, create a hunter in "Hunter Mode" (introduced in version 1.1) that locks in difficulty settings and removes the options to purchase special items that make your hunt easier!
Action Challenge When you’ve gotten comfortable with hunting doves in Dove Season, be sure to try out the Action Challenge where you are set in the path of a never-ending flock of doves and you must down as many as you can before time runs out! Special silver and gold doves are worth more points and they add to your time. Stringing hits together will increase your score multiplier. Action Challenge takes it all: speed, accuracy, target recognition!
Hunting Life VR lets you enjoy the outdoors your way!
