The best VR boxing game is getting a sequel
If you’re a fan of VR boxing, here’s some news to get excited about—Thrill of the Fight 2 has officially been announced for the Meta Quest! Developed by Sealost Interactive LLC, the follow-up to one of the best boxing simulators in VR promises to keep the punches flying, though there’s still a lot we don’t know yet.
The announcement came with a brief, live-action teaser trailer. Nothing flashy—just a man hitting a punching bag, with the title reveal at the end. It doesn’t give us much to go on, but it’s enough to get fans of the original game talking.
For those who haven’t played the first Thrill of the Fight, it’s widely regarded as one of the best VR boxing simulators out there. It’s not your typical arcade boxing game where you can just spam punches and win. This game forces you to think, strategize, and manage your stamina. If you go in swinging wildly, you’ll gas out fast, just like a real boxer. It also happens to be one of the best VR workouts you can get, with plenty of players sweating buckets during a session.
The Quest version of the original game was especially impressive, with its mixed reality mode really upping the immersion. You could see your real-life surroundings while fighting, which added a whole new layer of intensity to the experience. It’s not just about landing punches—it’s about using your brain and your body together to outbox your opponent.
There’s no release date yet for Thrill of the Fight 2, so we’ll have to stay patient. But if it’s anything like the original, it’s going to be worth the wait. Keep your gloves up, because more details will hopefully come soon!
