Z.O.N.A. Project X VR Steam Box Art Release Date: August 25, 2023 Developer: AGaming+ Publisher: AGaming+ Platforms: Microsoft Windows Genre: VR Action Survival Shooter

Released on August 25, 2023, Z.O.N.A Project X VR is a single-player VR game developed and published by the Ukrainian studio AGaming+. It is heavily inspired by the Stalker video game series. The sole survivor of a devastating attack, the player travels through the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, navigating supernatural "Anomalies" and defeating ferocious monsters while scavenging for weapons, supplies, and powerful "Artifacts."

Note: Many of the firearm models featured in Z.O.N.A Project X VR appear to have been ripped, either intentionally or unintentionally, from the discontinued 2017 mobile game Maze Militia. As such, they are somewhat stylized and lack fine detail compared to other, more realistic attempts at weapon modeling.

The following weapons appear in the video game Z.O.N.A Project X VR:

Handguns

A useful backup weapon for when a lunging zombie gets a little too close for comfort, a handgun may be carried in a holster attached to the player's belt. They take up one "small" inventory slot in the player's backpack or storage when not equipped.

Desert Eagle Mark XIX

A Desert Eagle Mark XIX is the player's starting sidearm, given to them during the first mission. Its caliber is never directly mentioned in-game beyond a vague description of it being a "high-powered handgun," but its 7-round magazine capacity suggests .50 AE. The cartridges modeled inside the magazine bear a much stronger visual similarity to unjacketed .45 ACP rounds than they do .50 AE rounds, however. It deals average damage per shot and its ammunition is plentiful, making it a dependable backup weapon throughout the game.

The other side. Don't mind the messy hideout, I've been meaning to do some spring cleaning.

Taking a closer look at the Desert Eagle's magazine and the ammunition contained within.

Inserting a 7-round magazine.

Chambering a round of ".50 ACP"; getting a finger caught in the Desert Eagle's action is generally not advisable.

Aiming down the Desert Eagle's sights. Their crude, non-luminous nature restricts the handgun's usage to very close range.

Makarov PM

A Makarov PM was added in Update 1.00.30. It serves a similar 'generalist' role to the Desert Eagle, trading a small amount of damage for an extra round in the magazine. It can be found throughout the game and its ammunition and magazines are a common appearance.

Grasping at his PM for comfort, the player stands in the midst of a mazelike swamp.

Perhaps the way out of here is engraved on the other side of the gun?

No such luck. Loading the pistol sure wouldn't hurt, however.

Bringing a round into the chamber. Unfortunately, a black void is all that exists inside this handgun, preventing one from visually checking their firearm's status.

Aiming down the PM's crude irons at nothing in particular (although you can never be sure, especially in the Zone.)

SIG-Sauer P226

A SIG-Sauer P226 known as the "Night Hawk" is the game's most powerful (and elusive) pistol. It is somewhat stylized, featuring custom grips and a compensator. The "Night Hawk" is extremely useful, dealing more damage per trigger-pull than almost any other firearm in the game and holding 12 rounds per magazine, the highest among the handguns. Examining the Hawk's magazine offers a possible explanation for its excessive damage; its rounds are short and very stout, resembling large-caliber black powder munitions more than the actual P226's 9x19mm.

Taking a closer look at a Night Hawk magazine, which can hold up to 12 of... whatever this is chunky round is. One thing is for sure; it hits like a truck.

Pulling back on the slide to prepare this Night Hawk for flight. This also gives a clearer view of the compensator.

Looking down the Night Hawk's iron sights. They'll get the job done, but not much else.
