About Sairento VR

Sairento VR is a mission-driven, VR action role-playing game set in a reimagined Japan in the near future. In Sairento, you play as a member of the Silent Ones – a righteous but covert organization of seemingly ordinary people who practice the long forsaken code and martial arts of the ancient samurais and ninjas. You are tasked with uncovering the sinister secret behind other members of the Silent Ones turning into crazed nano-infected shells of their former self and in the process, fight your way through multitudes of your past comrades.

What makes my game unique?

Sairento is the only VR game at the moment that allows players to perform multiple jumps, backflips, somersaults, power slides, wall runs, bullet time, shoot and slash all in the same game. Our game is coined by many as "the ultimate cyber ninja simulator in VR" and is considered a cult favorite.

Why could my game win an award?

If we win, I hope it is because we dared to do something different with VR. While most VR game developers shy away from complex and what they imagine would be 'barf-inducing' locomotion in VR, we decided to do just the opposite and push the envelope. Sairento was the first game that allowed VR gamers to leap into the air and perform gravity defying backflips. An overwhelming majority of VR gamers who have tried Sairento love its locomotion and it shows in our reviews on Steam. We hope Sairento wins because it is a game that has shown other VR game developers that it is OK to be experimental with VR and that it is important to differentiate VR locomotion from normal locomotion.
