Review Highlights About the Game THE MISSION IS SIMPLE. THE TRUTH IS NOT. You are Agent Epsilon, an Atlantic Union astronaut sent to investigate an abandoned Volgravian research base on Rhea, one of Saturn’s moons. What begins as a covert recovery mission soon becomes something far stranger. Red Matter is a story-driven VR puzzle adventure set in a dystopian Cold War where every room, object and document may hold part of the truth. Explore an isolated facility, restore forgotten machinery and follow the evidence left behind by a crew that vanished. INVESTIGATE EVERY DETAIL Scan objects, translate Volgravian documents and search the facility for clues. Propaganda, personal belongings, research records and the environments themselves reveal a mystery that rewards observation and curiosity. Nothing is quite what it seems—and the deeper you investigate, the more unsettling the truth becomes. SOLVE THE FACILITY Repair circuits. Operate unfamiliar machinery. Decode information. Manipulate objects with your own hands. Every puzzle is built into the world around you, turning the facility itself into something to understand, unlock and investigate. TOOLS BUILT FOR VR Your motion controllers become multifunctional devices for grabbing, scanning, translating and illuminating the world around you. Turn dials, pull switches, examine objects and operate technology naturally as you uncover what happened on Rhea. A RETRO-FUTURE COLD WAR IN SPACE Step onto the hostile surface of Rhea and descend into imposing brutalist corridors, underground installations and secret laboratories. Detailed environments, upgraded 4K textures, rich materials and atmospheric lighting bring Red Matter’s retro-futuristic world to life. The tension comes from isolation, surveillance and the feeling that something went terribly wrong here. MOVE YOUR WAY Explore using smooth locomotion, teleport or dash, with multiple movement options designed to let you experience the facility your way. UNCOVER THE TRUTH Every clue brings you closer. Every discovery raises another question. And some secrets were buried for a reason.
