The current playtest for VR dark fantasy action game Reave will be its last as developer Alta announced the game will cease development. Reave will be unplayable after May 4.
Alta (A Township Tale) detailed the news in Discord with the following message:
Like many teams across the games industry, and especially within the VR space, we have faced increasingly difficult market conditions alongside the rising cost of development. Despite every effort, we have reached the difficult decision to end development of Reave at Alta.
While this may appear as though Reave is being left behind, that could not be further from the truth. If circumstances had allowed, we would have continued building and expanding Reave alongside all of you for years to come.
The current playtest will be the final opportunity for anyone interested to play the game before it shuts down on May 4.
Reave was formally announced during the March 2025 VR Games Showcase after Alta spent the better part of a year posting developer vlogs about the game under the name ‘Project 2.’ Alta has run multiple playtests on Quest and PC VR since then.
