Never played the PC version. Saw this yesterday on the store here and had to buy. I've been having fun trying to make cool machines. Looked up some Siege engines from history to try to make.

Are there going to be any updates? like non pre order skins?

This is a fun adaptation of the PC version. Even if you have never played the PC version, the VR version will feel amazing. There is a learning curve, since I'm not a frequent VR user.

Old Review:
I purchased the game for my Quest 2, but it won't even appear in my apps, even after all updates and a few days/many hours of waiting.

**Meta helped update my old software, and the app appeared afterwards.

probably the best standalone port I have seen so far. if you like besiege it's is a must have imo

Good fun, good physics and its nice creating a new machine to meet the next level's challenges. It feels good to create something that works but also fun when it fails catastrophically.

I enjoy the excessive blood spalts when one of your machines chops up an enemy soldier (although that can be turned off if you dont like that sort of thing).

I purchased the game for my Quest 2, but it won't even appear in my apps, even after all updates and a few days/many hours of waiting.

It needs more tutorials for noobs. I couldn't figure a lot out so I made an in depth guide on the game and yes it include HOW TO STEER A MACHINE! Just copy&paste the following text:

Besiege VR – Meta Quest 3 Quick Look & Full Building Guide

Chapter:1-Introduction

Besiege VR is a medieval physics-based building simulator, now fully immersive in virtual reality for Meta Quest 3. In VR mode, the core PC mechanics remain, but building, testing, and controlling creations happen in 3D space with your hands. The VR version has a slightly streamlined menu layout for comfort and control, so this guide focuses exclusively on the VR build interface.

Chapter:2-Building Interface/Tools

2.1 Build Menu Layout

In VR, the build menu appears as a floating radial or panel UI in front of you, accessible with your controller. You select blocks/tools with a point-and-click motion.

2.2 Core Tools

1. Block Placement Tool

Purpose: Place blocks in 3D space on your machine.

VR Use: Grab and “snap” blocks into the grid. Rotation is done via wrist twist or joystick rotation.

Tip: Hold placement trigger to continuously add in a straight line.

2. Move Tool

Purpose: Relocate existing blocks without deleting them.

VR Use: Grab a block and drag it to a new snap point.

3. Delete Tool

Purpose: Remove blocks.

VR Use: Point and click to delete. Hold trigger for multi-delete sweep.

4. Rotate Tool

Purpose: Rotate blocks around axes.

VR Use: Select the block, then twist your controller or use joystick inputs to rotate.

5. Mirror Tool

Purpose: Build symmetrical designs faster.

VR Use: Activate symmetry plane; blocks placed on one side appear mirrored on the other.

6. Translate Machine Tool

Purpose: Move the entire creation in VR space to reposition it.

VR Use: Useful for lining up test runs without rebuilding.

7. Translate Camera Tool

Purpose: Move your personal VR viewpoint while building.

VR Use: Walk in VR space or use thumbstick locomotion.

8. Undo / Redo

Purpose: Reverse/restore recent actions.

VR Use: Click undo/redo icons on the VR menu panel.

Chapter 3 – Building Blocks & How to Use Them in VR

3.1 Structural Blocks

Wooden Block – The foundation block. Cheap, light, but breakable.

VR Tip: Build a chassis base before adding functional parts.

Brace – Strengthens connections between parts.

VR Tip: Use diagonally to prevent flex in moving machines.

Plank / Half Block – Lighter than full blocks for delicate builds.

3.2 Motion & Steering Parts

Hinge – Rotates freely in one axis.

Use: Doors, flaps, deployable parts.

Swivel Joint – Rotates in multiple axes freely.

Use: Turrets, swiveling arms.

Steering Hinge – Controlled hinge for wheel steering.

Use: Attach to front wheels for vehicle control in VR.

Ball Joint – Allows rotation in all directions without detachment.

Piston – Extends/retracts when activated.

Use: Lifting arms, pushing mechanisms.

3.3 Wheels & Locomotion

Small Wheel / Large Wheel – Driven via keybinds.

Unpowered Wheel – Rolls freely.

Tracks – For tank-like movement.

Powered Cog – Drives chains/gears.

3.4 Suspension & Stability

Suspension – Absorbs terrain bumps, improving steering control.

VR Tip: Use for vehicles with uneven weight distribution.

3.5 Weapons & Siege Gear

Cannon – Fires explosive shot.

Flamethrower – Short-range fire blast.

Spinning Blades – Melee defense/attack.

Grabber – Picks up objects when triggered.

3.6 Utility Blocks

Ballast – Adjustable weight.

VR Tip: Move ballast position to balance your machine mid-test.

Wing Panel – Adds lift in flying machines.

Propeller / Small Propeller – For air vehicles.

Vacuum Block – Sucks objects toward it.

Chapter 4 – Steering Systems in VR

4.1 Basic Front-Wheel Steering

Use steering hinges on front wheels only.

Map left/right to thumbstick or VR controller tilt.

Good for simple cars.

4.2 Four-Wheel Steering

Add steering hinges to both front & rear wheels.

Rear steering opposite direction to front = tighter turns.

Rear steering same direction = “crab walk” sideways.

4.3 Tank Steering

Use separate powered wheels or tracks on left/right sides.

Control each side independently.

Push left forward/right backward to spin in place.

4.4 Articulated Steering

Split chassis with a pivot hinge in the middle.

Rotate hinge for steering instead of wheels.

Great for heavy machinery.

Chapter 5 – Advanced VR Tips & Hidden Tricks

1. Invisible Braces – Build braces, then remove visual mesh in settings for cleaner look.

2. Hidden Weapon Bays – Hide weapons inside hinged panels for surprise attacks.

3. Weight Shifting for Climbing – Move ballast during play to tip vehicle for climbing.

4. Snap-Free Mode – Disable snap for precise custom angles in VR.

5. Miniaturized Gears – Small cog + big cog for torque boost.

6. VR Scaling – In VR you can “lean in” close to build micro-details impossible on flat screen.

7. Multi-Layer Steering – Combine tank steering with hinge steering for extreme control.
