Final Fury is a VR fighting game in the vein of Street Fighter and Tekken. I have been playing this game in beta for months and now there is a FREE demo available on Steam as part of October's Steam Next Fest. I go over all the details of the game, my thoughts on how it has evolved, and give some gameplay at the end.

Thanks to Antlion for providing a unit for this feature.
